Doesn't cost that much. They're Ofsted inspected so they have to be able to back up what they say.

£2k a term is fine if you can afford it, it's central london and you know they are somewhere safe and comfortable
but you can go too far with the garbage. teaching a 2 year old confidence? pfffft. the truth is, "our rent and staff cost a fortune and we're here to make a profit, but your kid will be in good hands".

It's not so much that they are teaching confidence, they're observing things like that, they are teaching other things though, such as the alphabet, that sharing things with other kids is important etc.

all nurseries do that, and in fact only cunt parents don't do that
you're paying for the name and the location. which is fine, christ i'd do exactly the same if i had a kid, but they really shouldn't peddle it as something it's not.

Even a lobotomy wouldn't sort the spoilt miserable cunt out.

she'd be taking micro to the state nursery (which she herself hasn't paid any taxes towards)
she needs a dose of reality

She has paid tax, quite a lot when she worked for Saatchi and Saatchi.

Her chess isn't quite as good as I'd like it to be, but her Mandarin writing is coming on very well and she's better than Tarquin and Atticus at applied physics.
