North Kingston Children’s Centre offers a high quality service for parents and carers with children under 5 years of age.

Sure Start Children’s Centres are places where children under 5 and their families can receive seamless integrated services and information, and where they can access help from multi disciplinary teams of professionals.

Stay and Play is a group for parents and carers in the community with children up to the age of five to come and play with your child in a safe and welcoming environment.

                                               We love to mix

We offer advice and we will signpost you to services in the borough. We also offer refreshments.

We have monthly visits from Health professionals, the Library, Oral Health Department, the Community Police and more.

The cost is £1.50 per family and we open 9.30 till 11.25 a.m. on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

                 Oral Health staff love visiting our centre

Parents, come and learn about cleaning your children’s teeth

The Centre encourages your child to be a “Competent Learner”

Here at North Kingston Childrens Centre we aim to develop and deliver the Children’s Centre
programme according to local and national objectives and standards to the optimum benefit of children, their families and their communities.

                                               Strong Child

The Children’s Centre will promote and develop integrated education, health and childcare services, and offer high quality affordable provision for children from birth to 5 years.

                                  Healthy children

The aim of the Children’s Centre is to improve outcomes for all young children, be accessible to all in North Kingston and in particular to reach those families or groups who are not accessing services.

         Using imagination - Enjoying and achieving

Children’s Centres are one of the main ways in which the objectives of the government's
Every Child Matters programme will be achieved.

                Skilful communicators

In the Children’s Centre there will be increased availability of high quality integrated childcare and early learning, health services and family support services at a more local level to meet the needs of families and children in a more personalised way.

                      Staying Safe

            Making a positive contribution

                  So come along and Enjoy a quiet time or have fun
