What is the age range of children in a nursery?
Day nurseries are for children aged 3 months to 5 years of age. The age range will be shown on their registration certificate. Some nurseries have places for babies and toddlers as well as for children aged three to five, and some nurseries are part of childcare schemes that also provide care for older children. If you’d like to search to find day nurseries in your area, visit the Childcarelink site, and follow the simple instructions. Alternatively, contact Croydon Children’s Information Service, who maintains a comprehensive list of day nurseries in the Croydon area – we’re here to help.
