Why N Forest Hill?

We’re over the moon to be opening our doors in the wonderful community of Forest Hill – home to one of our cultural ‘favourites’ the Horniman museum, and now our very own nursery.

Just a 2-minute walk to the station, N Forest Hill is a brand-new, purpose-built nursery with spacious, high-ceilinged playrooms – all of which have direct access on to the generous garden. In addition to being soaked in natural light, the nursery rooms support every aspect of our bespoke curriculum and benefit from clean air – thanks to our hi-spec air filtration system.

We’re all about making things easier for our families and our buggy store does just the trick – providing a safe place for you to leave your buggy until pick-up. Even better, our parent breakfast bar will serve (much needed!) coffees and pastries, meaning you’ll be set up for the day in just the right way!

Open Longer

Subject to availability, we offer a flexible pay-as-you-go hour at either end of the day (7-8am, 6-7pm), making it easier for you to balance drop-offs and pick-ups with a busy schedule.

The great outdoors

Our imaginatively designed garden is the perfect place for exploration. Think Forest School inspired sessions and water play!

Beautiful spaces

Inspirationally designed with the latest air purifying technology.

Balanced meals

Our meals are nutritionist designed and freshly prepared on-site.

Parents' breakfast bar

Haven’t found time to feed yourself in the morning rush? Look no further than our dedicated parents’ area which serves free coffee and breakfast, every day.

Rethinking Early Years Education

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

Learn about our curriculum

The N Day

Drop off

We recognise that mornings can be a challenge, and we’re committed to doing everything we can to ensure a positive and warm start to the day.

Child-led play

Children are able to freely play with our many resources including our art studio, dress-up stations and the N library.

Mealtimes

All N meals are prepared from scratch by our in-house chefs. We have family mealtimes where the children eat as a group with their key educators.

Educator-led learning

Every day our educators will lead a small group or individual sessions covering a wide range of topics, including yoga and cooking.

Outdoor learning

Our gardens provide the perfect backdrop for physical activities such as climbing, ball games and obstacle courses, as well as Forest School-inspired learning, planting and water play.

Sleep and rest

Our nursery rooms are designed to convert into cosy sleeping spaces, while children who no longer require a sleep can still relax in our designed ‘hygge’ corners.

Pick up

At home time, parents are encouraged to come in and chat with the educators and hear all about their child’s day and accomplishments.

Menu

We’ve worked with the former Head of Nutrition at Jamie Oliver, Laura Matthews, 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 menu

Fees

Under 3 years £100 per standard day
3 years + £90 per standard day

Fees include all meals, snacks, formula for infants, nappies, and trips.

Minimum attendance is 3 full days, including a Monday or Friday. All conditions are subject to availability.

Making payments

Fees are due in advance, and we issue invoices mid-month for the following month. Unfortunately there can be no refunds for sickness or holidays. Any fee increases will be communicated 2 months before affecting your invoice and are based on the nursery’s running costs.

Flexibility

You can extend the standard day (8-6pm) by up to an hour each way at the same hourly rate on a pay as you go basis - i.e. £10/hr for under 3s or £9/hr for 3 years+; equivalent to £2.50/15mins or £2.25/15mins.

Joining fees

To join the waiting list at N, parents are required to pay a waiting list registration fee of £300

On accepting a place, this fee will become a non-refundable joining fee, and you’ll be asked to pay a £400 place acceptance fee, which will be deducted from your final invoice.

Fees

Minimum 3 full days including a Monday or Friday. Multi-day discounts have already been applied (see below for details).

To further support the expansion of funding for children aged 9-23 months, additional charges for essential items will not be passed on to families attending N Forest Hill at this time. This offer will remain in play for the remainder of 2024 and 2 months’ notice will be provided ahead of any change.
