The Active Learning nursery chain prides itself on having a 'unique curriculum' where children play tennis, practise yoga and even learn to write operas.
There are sensory rooms and an organic menu prepared by onsite chefs, and parents can log on to webcams while they are at work and watch their children playing.
It all adds up to a winning formula, as three of the north London nurseries are currently full, with long waiting lists ranging from 30 to 230 children.
There are six Active Learning nurseries based around London and the south-east, situated in Crouch End, Finchley, West Hampstead, Kingston, Fulham and Dorking. The high level of demand has meant Active Learning is now opening two more settings in the next six months. It is also expanding its flagship nursery in West Hampstead, and is eventually looking to grow to a total of 12 to 15 nurseries. One of these new settings has just opened in Southgate, in north London.
