Dawmouse Tips

Welcoming your child to nursery: a gentle first term

Starting nursery is a big step for any little one — and for their parents too. At Dawmouse we take the settling-in process gently, at each child’s own pace.

Little and often

Short, frequent visits help a child build familiarity with our rooms, our routines and our team before their first full session.

If you have any questions about starting at Dawmouse, we would love to hear from you.

Dawmouse is one of the longest-established day nurseries in Fulham — a Montessori nursery school in SW6 for children aged two to five. When the time feels right, take a look at our admissions and term dates.
