Welcome to Our Nursery

– HWA Centre, Crescent East, Hadley Wood, Enfield, EN4 0EL –

Recently voted for the second consecutive year, ‘Best Preschool in North London’ 23/24 (London & the Southeast), Hadley Wood Preschool & Playgroup (HWPP) is a small thriving Ofsted registered ‘Good’ Nursery nestled in the heart of the Hadley Wood Community surrounded by glorious woodland and open spaces. Situated in a tranquil location, HWPP prides itself on being quite simply unique. Our word-of-mouth recommendations are testimony to themselves as parents are overwhelmed with the enthusiasm and passion our staff convey in providing each and every child experiences they can treasure and learn from.

In HWPP, every child is unique and we aim to provide a rich, stimulating environment in which opportunities for learning can take place. Our excellent OFSTED report is testimony to the way children, parents and highly qualified staff, work together to create a happy, safe environment in which children flourish.

Our Mission Statement

We aim to enable all children in our care to embark upon their learning journey by providing a rich play environment which is safe and happy. We lead by example and provide positive role models through which the children will learn to foster good relationships with their peers and adults built on mutual respect and dignity. We will celebrate diversity, provide support for our families and foster an atmosphere of caring for each other. We will work in partnership with parents to ensure that by observing the capabilities of their children and providing challenging, stimulating activities to support their personal development and learning, each child will feel empowered to make confident choices to reach their full potential and ensure a positive contribution to society.

Preschool and Playgroup

We have two cohorts, Caterpillars with children aged 2-3 years and Butterflies with children aged 3-4 years. Children are welcomed into the setting from their second birthday, where they are nurtured and educated to be school ready upon departure before their fifth birthday. However, children can also enter the setting at preschool age in readiness for mainstream school.

Our two classrooms are airy and light and can merge via interconnecting doors when there is a need to do so. Children experience both rooms supporting our transition phase and play happily together in our outside playground and garden area which is safe and secure. Additionally, the children benefit from the exhaustive grounds within the locality including nature trails that run behind the setting where their curiosity can take centre stage.
