A sensitive restoration of an impressive period property, the nursery is filled with character while equally purpose-built to support every element of our early years curriculum.

A sensitive restoration filled with character while equally purpose-built to support every element of our early years curriculum.
We support our educators to pursue early years degrees and further studies.
We’re creating the best experience for our children, parents and teams.
Here at N, we’re on a mission to rethink early years, offering a fresh educational outlook to prepare children for life in the modern world. Working with leading early years experts, we’ve blended our own unique curriculum, taking influence from a variety of learning philosophies including Reggio Emilia, Bruner, Forest School and Montessori. We were recently named the UK’s highest quality nursery group and we believe that our bespoke approach, combined with the learning outlined by the EYFS, supports all of our children to play and explore, be active learners and critical thinkers.
Our bespoke curriculum is split into four key pillars of learning:
Holistic health
Self expression
Global responsibility
Inventive ideas
We’ve worked with experts to make sure that we deliver a balanced menu that supports every child’s developmental needs. Our chefs prepare fresh meals in our cafe kitchen, everyday.
This week's menuAfter completing her NNEB, NVQ3, and Chiltern Certificate in Childcare and Education, Catherine embarked on an exciting journey with Disney Cruise Line, spending 7 adventurous years at sea working for various cruise companies and exploring the globe. She and her husband then made the move to the USA. However, as the saying goes, there's truly no place like home, and they have since returned to Berkshire permanently. Joining N Family Club has allowed her to reconnect with her roots in childcare, and she couldn't be happier. Outside work, Catherine enjoys the theatre, TV shows, movies, and walking her fur-baby.
Morven grew up in Sunningdale, Ascot, spent some time living in London, and now calls Kintbury home. With 20 years of experience in Early Years, Morven is passionate about delivering the highest possible quality of childcare. She’s always eager to learn new skills and gain fresh knowledge. Morven’s dedication to her work is matched only by her love for family adventures - she loves spending time with her husband and their two daughters. Family walks with their two dogs and beach outings are some of her favorite activities.
With a career in childcare spanning back to 2002, Nadia is not only equipped with an NVQ3 but also holds a Montessori Diploma and a degree in Science. Her passion lies in helping children grow and achieve their full potential! She prioritizes working closely with parents to ensure harmony between home and nursery life. The most rewarding aspect of her role is the joy of seeing a new understanding spark in children's eyes and the pride they feel in their accomplishments. She is a proud parent of two boys and is happily married. In her free time, she enjoys traveling, hiking, and spending quality time with friends over meals or enjoying a good movie together.
Roshney has finished her Dip Level 3 in Children, Young People and Workforce. With 5 years of experience, she holds a managerial position. During her free time, Roshney finds pleasure in baking, taking leisurely walks, fishing, and cherishing valuable moments with her family.

Whilst the Government funding is structured for 38 weeks of the year (term time), our places are for 51 weeks of the year and so the funded hours are stretched over the 51 weeks that we’re open. Applied over 51 weeks, the funding equates to 11.18 hours per week. The same principle applies for the 30 hour funding.
Parents can assess their eligibility for funding and the application process by visiting the Government Childcare Choices website.
