Term-time only nurseries in SW12 (Balham, Clapham Common)
3 nurseriesupdated November 2026
A term-time only nursery opens during school terms and closes for the school holidays, usually for about 38 weeks a year. Many sessional pre-schools, school nurseries and some day nurseries work this way. Because funded hours are set at 38 weeks a year, they fit term-time settings neatly, so families using only their funded hours may pay little beyond meals and extras. The trade-off is that you need other care, or time off, during the holidays. Read our guide: Term-time only nurseries explained
