WELCOME TO HAMPSTEAD NURSERY & PRE-PREP
At NBH Hampstead Nursery & Pre-Prep School (becoming Alleyn’s Hampstead in September 2026), children aged 2 to 7 are immersed in a wholly holistic education, delivered by a truly caring team of experienced staff and subject specialists, each dedicated to inspiring a curiosity for knowledge. In the heart of Hampstead and with our Nursery and Pre-Prep campuses just moments away from one another, we are a diverse yet tight-knit community with kindness at our core. Our nurturing setting and expertise in early childhood development see happy children thrive in the formative years of education, making significant progress as they discover their ‘True North’.
KNOWING THE INDIVIDUAL
We pride ourselves on really getting to know each individual child on their journey through Nursery & Pre-Prep, tailoring our approach to make our already warm environment optimal for every learner. Whether your child joins us the day they turn 2-years-old, at age 3, or 4+, they will thrive in our culture of care, where teachers create meaningful relationships to support the growth of confidence and resilience, and utilise high staff to pupil ratios to help every child achieve their full potential.
FOSTERING EXCELLENCE
Our wide and enriching learning experience sees children explore the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) and Key Stage 1 core curricula and so much more. Subject specialist teaching sparks wonder in everything from drama and storytelling, music, gym and dance, to French, Italian and Forest School, providing a broad platform for academic and creative excellence and plenty of opportunity for children to develop their own passions and interests ahead of Prep School.
WE WOULD LOVE TO SHOW YOU AROUND
Join us at an Open Day to see the school in action, hear from the Head, and meet our brilliant staff and pupils. Private tours are available if you cannot make the next Open Day, or if you are looking for a mid-year or immediate vacancy. We are here to personalise your tour experience.
As we transition to Alleyn’s Hampstead in 2026, we invite you to our next open day:
Thursday 19 March, 9.30am – Nursery and Junior School Coffee Morning
We look forward to welcoming you to Alleynโs Hampstead to learn more about our vision and what an Alleynโs education has to offer for ages 2โ18.

The sun will set over Hampstead Heath tonight. It feels fitting.
For years, North Bridge House Hampstead has been building something remarkable: a community of curious minds, brilliant teachers, and families who showed up for their children, term after term.
Christopher Jones, thank you. For your leadership, your steady hand, and the foundations you leave behind.
Those foundations donโt disappear. Theyโre what @alleynshampstead gets to build on.
If North Bridge House helped these pupils find their true north, then now itโs time to help them become โall we can beโ.
To every pupil who walked these halls, every member of staff who shaped them, and every parent who trusted us with their children: thank you.
The sun sets. Tomorrow it rises again. Same heath. New horizon.
