Why choose Bowlers Community Nursery
Hear what people love about us…
All of our children have or will be attending Bowlers, and we couldn’t have wished for a better nursery. Not only is it a beautiful setting with fantastic equipment, but the staff are exceptionally kind, nurturing, and highly trained. Every time we drop our children off, we feel completely reassured knowing they are cared for by the most compassionate, dedicated people a parent could hope for.

“
Bowlers Community Nursery holds a special place in our hearts. We watched the care and attention staff gave to our son, transforming him from a shy introverted baby to a curious toddler and confident outgoing preschooler.
It really is a community; a family, who give the best they can for each and every child. The dedication of all staff members makes it a hidden gem in the Crouch End area.

“This camp was exactly what our daughter needed. She came home more confident, independent, and excited to take on new challenges. It wasn’t just about sports—it was about believing in herself. We’re so thankful for the amazing role models she found there."
