New Cross & Deptford Families First

Welcome to New Cross & Deptford Families First Nursery!

Located in the heart of New Cross Gate, London, the nursery provides a nurturing and vibrant space designed to support the growth and development of children aged between 2 and 5 years. A range of childcare funding streams is offered, including both working and Lewisham 15-hour funding places for 2-year-olds, 15-30 hours for 3-year-olds, and most other forms of government funding, as well as options for parents who pay privately. This ensures accessibility for all families in the local community and beyond.

The dedicated, multilingual team of experienced childcare professionals is committed to creating a safe, stimulating, and inclusive environment where every child can thrive. With a focus on early years education, inclusion, and diversity, the nursery provides a variety of engaging activities that encourage learning through play, creativity, and exploration in a secure setting. Children are guided on how to listen to their bodies and understand their own needs in self-care, self-regulation, and abilities.

At New Cross & Deptford Families First Nursery, strong partnerships with parents and caregivers are prioritised to ensure the best outcomes for every child. Additionally, a range of activities is available for parents during both the nursery term and holidays. These include weekly Play & Explore sessions, Saturday Socials, trips into the community, and holiday activities for parents to enjoy with their children.

A foundation for a lifelong love of learning and success is fostered at the nursery, creating a supportive and welcoming environment for all.
