About nursery education in Hackney

Hackney is home to 40 registered nurseries and early years settings, and nursery staffing here has its own rhythm. Ratio requirements mean a single absence can close a room, which is why nurseries here rely on trusted supply practitioners week to week. Together, Hackney's schools and nurseries educate around 38,000 children, and that scale keeps nursery cover requests coming in every week of term.

Expect a mix of room support, one-to-one care for children with additional needs, and helping keep the environment safe, tidy and stimulating. Bookings come from across the city and surrounding areas including Shoreditch, Dalston and Stoke Newington, so you can filter for nurseries and pre-schools within a comfortable commute.

Many practitioners use supply to sample different settings before committing to a permanent room leader role. Because our consultants are based in the London, we can match you to settings that fit your travel, experience and preferred age range rather than filling any gap that appears.
