Islington Baby & Toddler Stay and Play Groups
An up-to-date list of stay & play groups for 0 - 5 years old in Islington, including Archway, Holloway, Finsbury Park, Highbury, Newington Green and Canonbury. These groups are a great way to meet local parents and carers whilst playing with your little one. Use the buttons below to filter playgroups by day of the week, baby groups, dad/male carer groups and groups that happen in the afternoon.
Most playgroups will be term time only and some will require pre-booking or a fee/donation. Please check each group’s website for the latest information before attending. You can submit a new playgroup here. If you're an activity provider or brand and would like to reach our local audiences, learn how here.
Psst! Looking for even more local playgroups? Try the neighbouring boroughs of Camden, Hackney or Haringey.
