About Us​

HCK Nursery in Stoke Newington

Established in 1983

 by a group of lone parents, Hackney Care for Kids (HCK) provided a safe and caring environment for children, whilst their Parents/Carers went to work or study in order to improve their social and economic circumstances. Today we are proud that we have a strong legacy of supporting lone parents, and we also welcome any other Parent or carer in the wider community irrespective of age, sexuality, sex, disability, gender, gender reassignment, ethnicity, religion or belief, sexual orientation, marriage or civil partnership.
HCK is a community nursery in Stoke Newington and registered charity, catering for 38 children under 5 years of age. The aim of HCK is to provide full-time day care and educational stimulation enabling each child to achieve their full potential.

HCK is managed by a Board of Directors
comprised of Parents, Staff and interested persons from the community.

CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

Some children have special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and as such require extra support in their learning and development. HCK has a Special Education Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO) who is responsible for ensuring your child receives the correct level of support if required. 

The SENCO will liaise with parent, child and external providers such as Health Visitors, Speech Therapists, Social Workers and any other relevant person. This will help to inform the child’s Education Health and Care Needs Assessment and Plan (EHCP).
