We provide high-quality childcare for children aged 3 months to 5 years, offering a warm, welcoming, and stimulating environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. Our setting is divided into three age-appropriate rooms to support each stage of development:
• Baby Room (3 months to 2 years) – A nurturing space focused on sensory play and bonding.
• Toddler Room (2 to 3 years) – Encouraging independence, early communication, and exploration.
• Pre-School Room (3 to 5 years) – Preparing children for school with a focus on early literacy, numeracy, and social skills.
Our nursery is open Monday to Friday, from 7:30am to 6:00pm, offering flexible childcare to support working families. We provide freshly cooked, nutritious meals prepared on-site daily. Parents are also welcome to send a packed lunch if they prefer. Our experienced and qualified team is committed to delivering a high standard of care and early education, following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework. We ensure a safe, inclusive, and engaging environment where every child is valued, respected, and supported to reach their full potential.
We’d love for you to come visit us.
