Welcome to Academy 4 Kids Day Nursery
Since 2003, Academy 4 Kids Day Nursery has created a bright, welcoming space for children aged 3 months–5 years, right in the heart of Whetstone, Barnet, and Finchley. The nursery, located in a charming listed building, seamlessly blends tradition with a modern approach to childcare. Children spend their days exploring, building, and getting messy outdoors; there’s always something new to discover. As a member of the National Day Nurseries Association, we encourage every child to follow their curiosity, supported by a team of qualified, caring staff. Every family deserves a nursery where their child feels safe, inspired, and excited to learn.
What we offer

We have been attending Academy4Kids for over 3 years and have always found it to be a kind, happy and stimulating environment for our 2 children. We are always very impressed with the activities on offer and feel that our children have developed in leaps and bounds as a result. Most importantly, we have never doubted how much all the staff care for our children and that they provide a nurturing environment away from home. I would not hesitate to recommend Academy4Kids to anyone.
