Join NDNA: Nursery groups membership

Join us now and help us to help your nursery group, as we campaign for the right funding, a better business environment and a more highly skilled workforce for the early years sector.

NDNA membership for groups of nurseries is just £166 per year by direct debit for one site and £59 per additional setting.

Expert advice and time-saving resources

As a group member you will have your own designated NDNA adviser to answer your queries personally. Each of your nurseries get access to over 100 factsheets and 90 policy templates to adapt to their needs.

NDNA has the knowledge and expertise to advise you on Covid-19 restrictions, curriculum requirements, regulatory issues or inspections. Our legal helpline can advise on legal matters, whether it's to do with the Job Retention Scheme or contracts with parents. Get in touch with us and we'll put your mind at ease.

Raising standards and saving you money

Book high quality training from NDNA on topics from Safeguarding, to Food Hygiene, to Brilliant Babies. We can deliver to your team at your setting, through live webinars, or via our member-exclusive, low cost online training bundles. With our quality improvement scheme, Quality Counts, and Millie's Mark paediatric first aid award, we help nurseries to achieve the highest standards in care.

We can save you money on quality-checked nursery suppliers, from day-to-day essentials, play resources and equipment, HR and health and safety advice, DBS checks and more.

Influence, knowledge and impact

A collective voice is much louder than a lone one. Join our campaigns and be heard by MPs, Policy Makers and Local Authorities. Only a large membership body, like NDNA, can have real influence and drive the changes we need for a sustainable early years sector.

Group owners can sign up to policy alerts, so you are the first to know of issues that affect the sector. You and your staff can also stay up-to-date with our newsletters and Nursery News magazine.

Events and awards

All your setting managers can attend our free member events across the UK and can join forces with their local peers at free UK-wide NDNA networks. Get discounted rates for our inspiring NDNA Conference for all your team and you can enter all your settings in our annual nursery awards too!
