Bright Start Islington: Under 5s and Children’s Centres 

Bright Start Islington is our name for services for under fives and their families run in children’s centres, nurseries, health centres, community centres and libraries across Islington. We support families from pregnancy to a child’s fifth birthday.


COVID-19 Update: We have developed a programme of online activities and teams are supporting parents over the phone. Download a timetable of Bright Start Online activities. We are also running Bright Start Lunch Bunch Picnics over the summer holidays and several Bright Start SEND Picnics.

If you have a family support worker, they will continue to remain in contact with you during this period. If you have a question, need some information, advice or guidance our family engagement workers are still here to talk over the phone.

You can find more information about family support on our directory website.
