“It takes a village to raise a child”
At Village Clubhouse, we bring this philosophy to life — creating a supportive, connected community where parents and caregivers can access holistic childcare solutions in a welcoming environment. Because raising children isn’t just a personal journey—it’s a collective one.
What is Village Clubhouse?
A holistic wraparound care destination for children aged 4-11, designed as a warm, multi-purpose environment that supports parents and children to thrive in the chaos of modern times. We provide families with a unique support system that adapts to their specific needs, easing the pressures of balancing work, school schedules, and personal time - whilst providing children with educational support before and after school, and exceptional life skills not found at any other childcare service.
Village Clubhouse bridges the gap between the structure of school, the personalised care of nannies, and the unpredictability of flexible childcare - ad hoc or on subscription.

Wraparound Care
We offer holistic wraparound care in an engaging and safe after-school environment for children aged 4-11. With dedicated time and space for children to complete homework led by trained Primary School Teachers and Teaching Assistants. One of our key goals is to nurture a love for reading books. We will aim to make reading a central part of our program by reading with children and to them, encouraging discussions around weekly topics and stories. We also offer role-play workshops that explore the subtext of popular books, allowing kids to engage with stories in a creative, interactive way. We host creative writing, times tables boosters, phonics practice, handwriting and spelling clubs before school.
Holistic Workshops
In addition to the academic support we offer holistic workshops after each homework session, such as various daily and weekly life skills workshops to help children navigate everyday challenges. These workshops cover practical skills like understanding nutrition, cooking, finance workshops, mindfulness sessions such as crystal healing, and learning to regulate emotions through breath work. We even introduce them to road safety by teaching them to read road signs and be responsible when out and about. We also encourage participation in national competitions, such as those hosted by Blue Peter and National Geographic.
Pick Up
With our eco-friendly cargo bikes, we provide a convenient school pick-up and drop-off service to Village Clubhouse, as well as transport for children within central Barnes. Spaces are limited, so please book early to secure your child’s spot.

Our program combines curriculum-based classes to cover the fundamentals of education (think homework club) with life-skills workshops designed to equip the next generation with a broad spectrum of practical capabilities to help them thrive today and into the future (think nutrition, self-care, and financial wellbeing).
All of this will happen during parents’ regular working hours, in a homely and nurturing environment led by trained teachers.
VCH will be proudly screen free at all times.
