For parents, the Clapham Village setting provides a parents' work room with computers and printers, concierge service, laundry services and take-away meals.
The south London nursery also features an art room with a resident artist, a science kitchen (pictured below), a dance studio, piano lessons and an urban beach.
Carole Edmond, managing director of Bright Horizons UK, said, 'Parents told us they wanted services which are tailored to the whole family, with everything under one roof. (...) We hope the extra services we are offering at Clapham Village make life easier and more convenient.'
