‘Children’s current curiosities and interests are embedded exceptionally well.’ Ofsted
Rated Outstanding by Ofsted, Burgess Park Pre-School provides Early Years education and childcare to children from 2 to 5 years old. You can find us in Peckham, just off the Old Kent Road. We’re a big, open-plan nursery with a lovely spacious garden.
The children enjoy a wide range of activities with our experienced staff, from cooking to yoga, science, gardening, construction and much more! The children also love to get creative – making woodland scenes using pine cones, twigs and toys.
The nursery has strong links to the local community. Our on-site food bank provides additional support to parents and we also run a clothes bank. Our in-house chef provides all the children’s meals, using healthy recipes from LEYF’s menu.

Rebecca, pre-school manager
I joined LEYF in 2019 as a Nursery Teacher and became Deputy Manager at Burgess Park in 2021. I am very passionate about special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and believe every child should have the opportunity to reach their full potential. I enjoy creating an environment that is fun and nurturing for both the children and their families, as this allows them to thrive.
At LEYF, all staff live our values.
