## About this early years setting

Lewin Pre-School, located in Streatham, provides a nurturing environment for children after their second birthday, often until they begin reception. The pre-school, which can accommodate just over 30 children, emphasises a unique educational approach that draws from the 'Natural Thinkers' methodology and the child-directed learning principles of Reggio Emilia.

As a member of the Early Years Alliance, Lewin Pre-School is committed to a broad, balanced, and structured curriculum designed to prepare children for school with confidence. The pre-school believes in the crucial role of parents as their child's first educators and fosters a partnership between parents and staff for optimal child development.

They also maintain a strong ethos of providing equal opportunities for all children and their families, ensuring an inspiring and supportive start to their educational journey.

It took me forever to find a place in a nursery that my son liked. It was important to me to put him in a safe and comfortable environment. My son has developed so much since starting here and the experienced staff know exactly what they are doing. It is a hidden gem and I am grateful for all the work that they do.
