About this day nursery

Faith & Love Nursery, located in Edgware, HA8 5DT, is a full-day care childcare setting for children aged 0-4 years. It has been operating since 2023 from The Apostolic Church in Burnt Oak.

30 am to 6 pm, all year round, except for bank holidays. The setting prides itself on being fully inclusive, with staff providing strong support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities, working in close collaboration with parents and local authority specialists to ensure tailored learning and development plans.

With many children learning English as an additional language, staff effectively use songs and stories to foster language development. The nursery ensures children receive healthy snacks and meals and have constant access to water.

Children are encouraged to learn the "golden rules" during circle time. While children are welcomed by friendly staff and enjoy a balance of child and adult-led play, the provision "requires improvement" as learning intentions are not always consistently achieved, impacting children's progress.

Our ethos

The Faith & Love Nursery is committed to the formative power of early education, rooted in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework. They provide a child-centred, play-based learning environment that emphasises individualised learning, spiritual growth, and the development of confident, independent, and resilient individuals, within a safe and happy atmosphere built on strong partnerships with parents.

What it's like

Children are welcomed into the nursery by friendly and enthusiastic staff. There is a balance of child- and adult-led play throughout the day, and children feel happy and secure in the routine.
