Russell Hill Road Day Nursery in Purley, Surrey, which was opened in June, is registered to provide care for 56 children from birth to five during the day, and 12 children overnight.
The nursery is open Monday to Sunday and charges a fee of £53.52 to care for children from 7pm-7am, which includes a meal in the evening and morning.
Owner Natalie Salawa, who also has a nursery in Brixton, said she opened the setting in Purley with the intention of providing 24-hour care after parents in the area who work shifts and weekends expressed the need for extended hours.
According to Ms Salawa, no other private settings in the area open for 24 hours a day.
