Enhanced Children's Centre (ECC)

The Enhanced Children’s Centre is a provision specifically for families in Wandsworth with young children (0-5 years) with a disability, special educational need or  complex medical need.

You will find a welcoming space where you and your child can have fun, play and learn. The centre has indoor and outdoor play spaces, a multi- sensory room and soft play room. 

Also available at the ECC -

Legal Advice

Telephone consultations available for free family law advice on areas such as divorce, finance and social services involvement. You must be registered and have a child under 5 years old to book an appointment. Please speak to a member of staff for further details on how to book. Booking required.

SMILE – Oral Health Session

Get advice and tips on how to look after your child’s teeth and gums and find out more about the

Community Special Care Dental Service that works with those finding it difficult to access regular dental care. Our oral health promoter, Sheryll John, visits stay and play sessions regularly during the term.

Why not pop in and have a chat about your child’s dental health needs. Please contact the centre to

find out the date and time of her next visit.

A Space to Talk

All parents have questions, worries or concerns about their child from time to time. Sometimes it can be helpful to talk things over with someone else. Our educational psychologist (EP) Emma attends regular drop-ins at the centre to give parents a space to talk about any worries or questions that they may have about their child. Please contact the centre to find out the date and time of her next visit.
