Childcare and nurseries
The trust has three Ofsted registered nurseries based at Barnet Hospital, Chase Farm Hospital and the Royal Free Hospital, providing high quality childcare for the children of staff who work for the trust, as well as other NHS staff and allied workers.
We take children aged from six months to five years (government funding is available for some age groups). We are open 52 weeks of the year (except bank holidays) and half day sessions (morning and afternoon) and part time places are also available. We also accept childcare vouchers.
