State-of-the-art nursery opens in Hendon
England’s largest Jewish nursery provider unveils new facility in north London
A new nursery has opened its doors on a custom-made site in Bell Lane, Hendon.
“The Hendon Gan” opened its doors to the children of BYPN, one of the most popular nurseries run by the Werton Group. After receiving an Outstanding rating from Ofsted at its last inspection, BYPN has rapidly expanded, opening a second branch in Golders Green last year.
Nestled amongst the Dollis Valley Greenwalk, the natural surroundings of the Hendon Gan will allow children to enjoy a forest school-inspired programme designed to teach young children about the world around them.
Werton Group has also recently opened nurseries in Edgware and Gateshead.
Co-founder Jamie Peston told Jewish News: “Children deserve more from nursery than simply babysitting and working parents increasingly require year-round, wraparound childcare. We provide child-led early education that actively encourages healthy development and drives success through school years and life beyond.”
The nursery currently welcomes children aged between 2 and 3 years old and from September, a baby room will be added to cater for children from 6 months to five years old.
