See nurseryWe are delighted to offer our unique approach to early years education to children across our stunning nurseries in North East London.
Our ever-growing N Family includes two nurseries in Stoke Newington and one in Hackney Downs.
Together these nurseries mark a major milestone in our journey. Each space is dedicated to our families, as a place to meet and relax as well as learn and grow, with wonderful gardens, cosy parents’ areas and a programme of exciting monthly events for all the family.
Our curriculum blends structured activities with play-based learning to foster growth and development. We aim to ensure every child reaches their full potential through a unique and bespoke approach tailored to individual needs and interests. The N curriculum is designed to prepare children for life in the modern world, focusing on holistic health, self-expression, global responsibility, and inventive ideas. Discover more about how our progressive curriculum supports your child’s development.
At N Family Club, we nourish young minds and bodies with carefully curated menus that support every child’s developmental needs. Our on-site chefs prepare fresh, balanced meals daily, following Early Years Guidelines from the Department of Education and Public Health England. All meals and snacks are made from scratch, and we have two family mealtimes where children eat together with their key educators. Explore our nursery food offerings and see a sample menu.
We’ve assembled a stellar team of experienced early years education specialists who developed our unique curriculum and support our nursery teams daily. Our educators lead small group or individual sessions focusing on communication, emotional literacy, or N extras like Spanish, yoga, or cookery. We believe the quality of our educators’ training directly impacts the education they provide. Through the N Academy, we support their personal and professional development. Our teaching strategies, influenced by our philosophical foundations, ignite children’s imagination and curiosity, allowing them to learn through various mediums.
Our N app is a seamless way for parents to stay connected with their child’s progress and daily activities. Through the app, parents can view updates and milestones, receive photos from the nursery, and input important information such as dietary requirements. Designed to foster communication and engagement, the N app ensures that parents are always in the loop and can actively participate in their child’s early learning journey.
We’ve gone to great lengths to create an inspiring environment that ensures the best possible start for your children and feels like a home-from-home for our families and team.
Collaborating with top experts, we have developed an innovative learning program that is exclusive to N Family Club and tailored to each child’s unique needs. Our exceptional early years educators focus on each child’s individual strengths and interests, allowing them to grow at their own pace.
Our nurseries follow the EYFS framework, ensuring your child receives a balanced and comprehensive early education. We offer a variety of extracurricular activities, including arts and crafts, physical education, and language classes. Our North East London nurseries feature modern, safe, and stimulating environments purpose-built to encourage children and support them to play, explore, and be active learners and critical thinkers.
We’re pleased to be offering the 2 year old and 9-23 month old funding. Tax-free childcare is also available as well as fully funded places through the Bursary Scheme.
