We have expanded in recent years to accommodate more children, whilst maintaining a small and friendly, welcoming setting. Our commitment is to provide high quality early years child care and education for children aged 2-4years. Parents and carers are welcomed as part of our nursery family and we work in close partnership with them.
We support a parent's right to be valued and respected, consulted, kept informed and included at all levels, to provide a service that promotes equality and values diversity. It is our aim to ensure that each child feels safe, cared for and valued and whose individual development is supported by a stimulating environment.

Starting Nursery
Report
Your child is about to begin nursery and it is a really important and exciting time for both of you. You may have some questions to ask about starting nursery, hopefully our website can answer some of these and help to prepare both you and your child for their time at nursery. Before your child begins Nursery you and your child will have an opportunity to visit the nursery and meet the staff during an induction session.
Learning through play

We operate within the Early Years Foundation Framework which continues into Reception class. This guidance promotes children's learning through play and exploration, linked with adult support and encouragement. We plan for the children's individual interests within an environment that supports their development.

Playing & learning outdoors
Report
Our children have access to the outdoors at all times of the day. This allows children to play where they are happiest and most confident; the outdoors is simply an extension of the learning environment, being outdoors has an equally positive impact on child's development and well-being. Children can explore on a larger scale, be physically challenged, encouraged to take controlled risk and make decisions.
