Why N Highgate?
Located in a grand former bank building with a garden, N Highgate sits right in the heart of Highgate village.
A sensitive restoration of an impressive period property, our Highgate nursery space is filled with character while equally purpose-built to support every element of our early years curriculum.
Nursery Highgate has five large playrooms filled with natural light, a dedicated atelier for N Extras, while outside, the garden comes complete with a baby area, mud kitchen, and flowering and vegetable beds.
We’re all about making things easier for our families, and the buggy store means you can head off hands-free after drop-off. Even better, our welcoming N café will serve (much-needed!) coffee and snacks, meaning you’ll be set up for the day in just the right way!

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 and Bruner. 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
Menu
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.

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.
Families can assess their eligibility for funding and the application process by visiting the Government Childcare Choices website.
