About Us

Welcome to Hopes and Dreams Montessori Nurseries.

Founded in 1997 on City Road in Islington, we have been providing a nurturing and stimulating environment where children grow and learn through creative play for over 20 years.

Our education is firmly rooted in traditional Montessori teaching methods that support the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum and provides an environment in which children thrive.

We work with educators passionate about child development and deliver an extremely high standard of early childhood education.

In 2018 we became part of Little Dukes, the early years arm of the Dukes Education family and opened a second site at Old Street in July 2022.
