The Butterfly Patch South Norwood

Our nursery in South Norwood is incredibly unique. Here, we encourage play with not just toys - but also recycled materials and everyday objects. We believe preschool learning through exploration is incredibly important and fully embrace the Curiosity Approach.

The curiosity approach offers little ones fantastic sensory and learning opportunities to learn through real-life, natural, holistic objects and thingamajigs! At The Butterfly Patch, we have taken this approach and added our own flavour to the spaces we have.

This approach offers great imaginative play opportunities whilst also promoting recycling, upcycling and reuse. We try to avoid having too many plastic toys - we'd rather repurpose household plastics for our learning activities!

We are able to offer childcare 51 weeks of the year and government funding (9 month, 2 year old & 3-4 years).

Healthy Early Years London

The Butterfly Patch is proud to be taking part in Healthy Early Years London (HEYL). It is an awards scheme funded by the Mayor of London which supports and recognises achievements in child health, wellbeing and development in early years settings.

HEYL will help to reduce health inequalities by supporting a healthy start to life across themes that include healthy eating, oral and physical health and early cognitive development.
