Welcome to Welwyn Garden City
Extended Schools' Consortium

Children's Centres

Children’s centres offer the best start in life for every child. They provide information and services for families with young children and aim to build on good existing services rather than starting new ones where it’s not necessary.

By visiting your local children’s centre, you will receive support and help in finding childcare, family support, health services and even employment advice. Many children’s centres will have a day nursery on site, or very close by, providing childcare from 8am – 6pm and will also have links with local childminders. If you are looking for daycare as a working parent, the centre will be able to give you information about the options for you and your child.

A full list of all the Children's Centres in Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield can be found by clicking here and full details of all the services a Children's Centre offers can be found at www.hertschildrenscentres.org.uk
