Southgate Day Nursery and Preschool

An Inspiring Nursery in Southgate to Learn, Grow and Play

Welcome to Southgate Day Nursery and Preschool. At our lovely purpose-built nursery, we're dedicated to giving children aged 3 months to 5 years the care and early education they need to give them the best start.

Spacious and Enriching Rooms

Your child will love spending their days in our bright and vibrant nursery, where we have six large age-tailored rooms all purposefully designed to help your child thrive.

The under 2s have a beautiful sensory room on the ground floor, with a large ball pool, a bubble machine, and cosy mood lighting. The room opens out into the under 2s garden, allowing fresh air and outdoor fun throughout the day. We also have a calming sleep room, so younger children can enjoy peaceful naps.

Over 3s can expand their learning with access to a computer and an iPad in their room, alongside sensory sand, water trays, and a construction area. In our preschool room, your little learner will discover all the skills they need to feel ready and prepared to start big school.

A Bright Beginning for Every Child

Your little one will get the best start to their schooling life through our enriching and wellbeing-focused Bright Beginnings Curriculum, designed by our own Early Years specialists.

Building on the foundations of the government's EYFS curriculum, Bright Beginnings combines a wide range of activities to nurture and develop the skills your child needs to flourish and reach their full potential. This holistic yet personal approach supports each child's wellbeing, development, and progress – whether that's moving rooms or preparing them for school.

You can stay updated with your child's day through our Bright Horizons Family app.

Getting Ready for Their Next Steps

To ensure your little learner is confident to start school, our older children take part in our Ready for School programme, which brings structure and focus to maths, reading, writing, and other essential skills they need to get ready for school.

Age-Specific Gardens

We're very lucky to have two beautiful separate gardens tailored to the children's ages. Our under 2s garden benefits from a reading area, plenty of shade, and lots of room to explore.

Our large main garden has a water wall, wooden teepee, balance beams, and lots of space to ride trikes and run around. There is even a covered outdoor classroom offering shade and shelter come rain or shine.

Enjoying the Local Area

We know the importance of community culture and regularly take the children on walks to the local park, pointing out landmarks on the way. This helps to build their confidence in places other than their nursery and makes them more familiar with their local area.

All-Inclusive Care and Convenience

  • Nutritionally-balanced meals are prepared daily and include a variety of tasty and healthy snacks. Our all-inclusive care extends to nappies, wipes, formula, nappy cream, and sun cream.
  • Onsite parking and buggy park.
  • Our nursery in Southgate is located a 3-minute walk from Southgate tube.
  • Longer opening hours of 7:30am to 6:30pm.
