French & English Bilingual Mini-Nursery (Playgroup) in Primrose Hill

A Great Alternative to a Day Nursery in Primrose Hill

Les Petits Bellots is a pair of independent French and English bilingual mini-nurseries located in Primrose Hill, London, welcoming children from the age of 6 months to 4 years.

Starting in September, we will be having professional experts in a range of different areas attending our creches to introduce the children to new skills, varying from art, cooking, drama, gardening, music, sports, yoga, and so on! They’ll be visiting and sharing their expertise with us for at least 5-6 weeks per Term.

Please note that we have a minimum session requirement in order to sign up, of 2 sessions a week.

Please note that we are happy to offer you a 10 % discount if you recommend us to someone who signs up at least for a term.

What happens at our Mini-nursery
sessions in Primrose Hill?

Our two-hour sessions in Primrose Hill begin with a welcome as children come in, followed by free play and then circle time, where we say ‘bonjour’ to everyone and sing during French Rhyme Time. Structured activities follow for 20 to 30 minutes, where staff interact with all children.

We take care of baby-change if the need arises and suggest toilet visits for older ones. After Snack Time (catered for by parents), we all tidy the room together, then we gather for our second circle time to read a story in French. We then have a dance session, which lasts between 10 to 15 minutes, before finally saying ‘au revoir’ to everyone as parents arrive to collect.

Parents are welcome to stay and watch, especially for the first few sessions to ensure their child has settled. However, most parents do make the most of the opportunity to enjoy some precious time out, dropping their children and collecting them at the end of the session. Our care is bespoke, and each family is different.

Location of our Mini-Nursery

Primrose Hill is a compact, villagelike area of London, with grand Victorian terraces and pastel-coloured Regency townhouses. Its namesake hilltop park has panoramic views over Regent’s Park and the city beyond. Upmarket delis, chic eateries, and boutique fashion stores cluster along Regent’s Park Road, and surrounding streets are dotted with gastropubs and tea rooms.

We have two mini-nurseries in Primrose Hill where we welcome new little ones to play and learn with us.

The Benefits of a Bilingual mini-nursery

The benefits of exposing your child to French & English bilingual environment only escalate these advantages not only on the short term but also on the long term as it will be a strong and solid base fundamental for your child’s future.

Studies have shown that bilingual children can outperform monolingual children in a number of subject areas. The effects of bilingualism can help improve a child’s educational development, cognitive functions, social skills, literacy, and emotional skills that have positive effects for many years to come.

Being bilingual can also improve a person’s multitasking skills, attention control, problem solving and creativity as it promotes outside-the-box thinking. It can also help improve your memory.
