Stockwell Children Centre
About Us
Our very own Children’s Centre, located just behind Stockwell’s school building on Burgoyne Road, provides a great foundation for learning by offering free and extensive activities and support services for families with children under the age of five.
The Children’s Centre offers a whole host of fun sessions from baby yoga to cook and eat sessions, as well as advice and training courses including a Citizens’ Advice Bureau, speech and language therapy and First Aid Training. Our dedicated and enthusiastic team of staff provide a safe and welcoming environment and we encourage families to come and visit us to find out more about the support and services available.
We look forward to meeting you.
