Fire Station Nursery has moved to our brand NEW Stoke Newington Nursery
Rated Good by Ofsted, Fire Station Nursery & Pre-School provides Early Years education and childcare to children from birth to 5 years old.
We’re based inside The Old Fire Station in Stoke Newington, close to Rectory Road station.
We have spaces dedicated to different age groups, including a cosy room for babies. Our experienced team has worked together for many years.
Every activity we do is designed to stimulate the children’s curiosity. The children enjoy science, dialogic reading, cooking, yoga, ‘feelings boxes’ and much more!
They love to get outdoors too, visiting the local shops and exploring nearby Abney Park. Our on-site chef prepares all meals using healthy recipes from LEYF’s menu.
