Why Eden
Care shaped around
each child.
Eden is built on familiar faces, calm rooms and close relationships with every family. Every child settles into an age-appropriate room with a steady routine and all the time they need to feel truly at home, at their own pace.
Our team speaks English, French and Arabic, helping families from all backgrounds communicate with warmth and ease — and we're always happy to explore other ways to support communication too. We welcome children of all abilities and needs, and our team is SEND trained. If your child is autistic, has ADHD, speech and language needs, allergies, asthma or any other additional needs, do let us know before your visit — we'll be glad to talk through how we can support them safely and well, together with you.

A note from Philomena
The care I'd want
for my own child.
I started out as an Ofsted-registered childminder, driven by one simple goal: to help families feel truly confident about the care their child received, every single day — safe, warm, personal and consistent.
That same standard is the heartbeat of every Eden nursery today, shaping our teams, our daily routines, our safeguarding and the way we speak with families.
Come and visit your nearest nursery, meet the team, and see for yourself how your child feels the moment they walk into the room.
— Philomena Sadia, Founder

Philomena is the warmest, most attentive person we've handed our daughter to. She came home knowing new words, new songs, more confident. We never worried for a second.

My hours are unpredictable and Philomena made it work without ever making us feel like an inconvenience. The progress in our son's speech in six months was incredible.

What you actually want from childcare: a person who notices everything, communicates clearly, and treats your child like one of their own. That's Philomena — now with a proper nursery behind her.

Before You Book
Questions, answered.
The questions families ask most. If yours isn't here, message the Eden team and we'll help.
Eden welcomes children from 15 months to 4 years, with room availability varying by nursery.
Each Eden nursery is operated by Edenchildcare Ltd and registered with Ofsted for full day care on non-domestic premises. When you enquire, our team will be happy to confirm the specific registration details (including the URN) for your chosen nursery.
Support may include funded hours, plus Tax-Free Childcare and Universal Credit support. Check your eligibility with our funding calculator. We accept all funding ages according to UK government schemes; specific ages accepted are subject to the nursery you apply to.
Opening hours vary by nursery. Croydon is open Monday to Friday, 7:00 am to 8:00 pm; Streatham and Rochester are open 7:00 am to 7:00 pm; and Holden Park is open 7:30 am to 6:00 pm.
English, French and Arabic are spoken across the team. This helps many families communicate comfortably and gives children familiar words as they settle in.
Yes, and we'd love to hear from you. Our staff are SEND trained, and Eden welcomes conversations about autism, ADHD, speech and language differences, allergies, asthma and any other additional needs. Just tell us about your child before booking, so our nursery team can talk you through how we'll support them safely and well, right from the start.
Daily routines vary by nursery and age group, but usually include child-led play, guided early-years activities, movement or outdoor time, meals or snacks, rest and a handover with parents. Your nursery team will explain the routine for your child's room.
Call or WhatsApp the Eden team on 07861 763 780, or use the enquiry form. Tell us your nearest nursery, your child's age and the days you need, and we'll help arrange a suitable visit.
Start dates depend on the nursery, your child's room and the days you need. Contact the team for current availability; once a place is agreed, they'll explain the settling-in plan before your child's first full day.
