hkirsop - you say you're new to the area and have got a place at this nursery? Just interested because we're also just moving to ND and keen on Bright Horizons, but they told me they have a waiting list of 200! Guess this is a typical Dulwich thing, but wonder (and hope) that they're exaggerating slightly. Any advice? Also, have a lovely (usually) and very sociable 2.5 year old daughter who will want to make friends in the area so would love to meet up, pls loop me in! Thanks
