We set out to redesign the nursery experience for families in the city – offering a fresh outlook on early years education, while also solving some of the key problems that most irritate parents.
We opened our first site in 2017 and now we're building progressive and design-led nurseries across London – creating exciting settings for children and providing real value for families.
Outside of nursery hours, our spaces turn in to community Family Clubs – centring around a monthly programme of one-off special events & talks aimed at both families and parents.
Our plan is to deliver 10+ new sites across London over the next 5 years.
We will be differentiated in the market by;
• Passionate educators who all have - or are working towards - Early Years degrees
• Beautifully designed buildings
• We’re open longer – from 7am-7pm, Monday to Friday
• Forest School & Outdoor activities are a core part of our learning programme
• Nutritious food, freshly prepared by our chef onsite
• Onsite Cafe with wifi
• Weekend Family Club
We're setting out to make family life in London a little easier, by housing everything young families need under one roof.

...because we like to take care of ourselves and each other!
In line with a salary framework, to ensure equal pay for equal work and that we recognise and reward when your responsibilities increase.
29 days’ holiday a year (inc UK public holidays), and we encourage you to use them all up! It's a marathon, not a sprint.
We are registered under the Cycle-to-Work scheme, so you can buy a bike and accessories tax-free.
We contribute to a workplace pension for N team members, in line with government guidelines
We encourage our team to find a course they are interested in and let us know how they think this will beneficial to them and the wider team. All team members are given all of the mandatory training for their role & many of our educators are working towards degrees and PGCEs, half funded by us.
Whether they be internal or external, we will help you find a mentor to support you in your development at N.
We believe in personal development, not just professional. N employees are given £250 a year to put towards a hobby, learning a new skill or attending a class.
We will lend you the money to buy an annual season pass and you can pay us back monthly.
Headspace Mindfulness app, free for all N team members.
For a week a year, we’ll run a rolling programme of wellbeing activities. Massages, Flu Jabs, Mindfulness & Yoga are all free and available to all team members.
An education for an education. For each and every child we educate at N, we support the education of a nursery-age child affected by conflict. In 2018 we donated £12,500 to War Child’s Early Childhood Development (ECCD) project in Jordan – giving vital support and learning opportunities to some of the World’s most vulnerable children.
We believe everyone should be part of where we’re going – and be rewarded for helping us get there. Annual bonus, linked to our goals of excellent customer service and outstanding educational delivery.
