N Family Club has opened its 11th nursery near to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford.
The modern, purpose-built space is tailored to each age group and includes specialist activity rooms providing high-quality educational opportunities for the early years.
Unique playrooms open out to the large circular garden, which features a bike track, an expansive climbing frame, slides and a vegetable patch. There’s also a secure undercover buggy store for parents.
N Family Club's CEO, Phil Sunderland, said, ‘We are so excited to have opened a new nursery in Stratford, so close to the Olympic Park. It’s a brilliant area, and we’re looking forward to providing Stratford families with the full N experience, an active community for parents and a brilliant learning environment for children.’
The location is minutes from the Olympic Park and is accessible to parents in and around the local area thanks to the close proximity to London underground lines, Docklands Light Railway and Southeastern rail links.
Working closely with experienced nutritionists, N Family Club’s chefs prepare fresh meals in the purpose-built kitchen.
In addition, the curriculum takes inspiration from a range of well-regarded learning philosophies, including Reggio Emilia, Bruner, Forest School and Montessori, which helps children to prepare for school.
Ms Sunderland added, ‘We aim to develop each child’s personal and emotional skills but also encourage extra learning experiences such as yoga, Spanish, cookery, science, creative art and global citizenship - which we’re excited to bring to the new nursery in Stratford.
‘It has been an extremely challenging year for those in the early years sector, so I am incredibly proud of our N Family Club team for working so hard to open this beautiful new nursery.’
N Stratford will also have community Family Clubs, with a programme of special events, some for the whole family and others just for parents. Nursery fees include access to a wide range of workshops and clubs for all the family to enjoy.
N Family's latest opening follows the acquisition of Red Balloon, a Surrey-based group of three nurseries, last month.
The East London nursery is the group's seventh location to open in the capital. Other locations in the capital include London Fields, Stoke Newington, Brixton, West Hampstead and Twickenham. New nurseries in Angel and Balham are due to open in the coming months.
