A HOMELY AND ENRICHING NURSERY IN LEWISHAM You and your child will love our home-from-home nursery in Lewisham. Our caring, experienced staff, inspiring environments and exciting activities support your child’s development from the age of 3 months to 5 years. Each room features age-appropriate resources to stimulate interest and learning. In the baby room, this ranges from sensory play to help them discover new sights, sounds and textures, and safe surroundings that encourage them to crawl, pull to stand and eventually walk. Toddlers love exploring the world through play and discovering new words and numbers through song, which is supported by the innovative and well established Boogie Mites programme. Our preschoolers enjoy our unique Ready for School programme, helping lay the foundations for future academic and creative achievements. Growing Readers, Writers and Mathematicians, alongside Growing Artists and Creative Cooks include enriching activities designed to encourage your child’s natural curiosity to learn, and inspire their interest in food and art. All of the children at Lewisham nursery love our large garden. Preschoolers enjoy free-flow access, giving them the choice of outdoor and indoor exploration. Plenty of trees provide shade in the summer, and we have a planting area for the children to grow their own seasonal vegetables and plants. There is even space for tricycles, an outdoor seating area and climbing frames. Our nursery in Lewisham is conveniently located within a 15-minute walk from Lewisham Station, and is close to local bus routes. There is designated drop-off space outside the nursery, and our all-inclusive fees include all meals, snacks, nappies, wipes and formula.
