Who are we?

We are a private nursery operating as part of an award-winning nursery group, offering high quality childcare in our specially equipped, light and spacious nursery for children aged three months to five years old. Adding to this, we tailor our care to suit your child’s age, including mobile and non-mobile babies. We achieve this by placing children into the following age categories: babies aged three months to approximately two years , toddlers aged two to three years, and lastly preschool aged three to five years. Each room reflects the seven areas of learning as prescribed in the Early Years Foundation Stage and is designed to be accessible to every child. Due to our rooms being equipped especially for these ages, we are able to provide that home-from-home feel.

We couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough. Our experience has met our expectations and more, the staff have all been incredibly kind and welcoming at all times. As for our daughter - she has come on leaps and bounds in the baby room. The proof is in the pudding.
