About us
Committed to ensuring that we provide a happy and secure environment where children flourish.
Our belief is that children learn best when they are engaged in independent play where their levels of involvement are at their highest. We therefore encourage the children to be independent learners with the support of skilled staff who can scaffold their learning.
We have lots of opportunities for child-initiated play within a varied and stimulating environment, introducing more adult-led activities for the older children.
Our strong key person approach is at the heart of our practice providing essential secure attachments for each child to feel protected and safe, giving them the confidence to explore and learn.
The nursery benefits from having a purpose-built building situated in the idyllic, wooded location of the University’s Clive Booth site.
- Two large play areas offer abundant opportunities for physical play and outdoor exploration with the willow dome and trees providing summer shade.
- The adjacent wooded area provides an ideal site for Forest School activities, led by our qualified Forest School leader and assistant.
The nursery chef plans and provides a wholesome balanced diet in the fully-equipped nursery kitchen. The premises and practice have been awarded the maximum of five stars by Environmental Health.
The daily menu includes a morning snack, cooked lunch and afternoon tea and incorporates fresh fruit and vegetables. The babies are offered an individual weaning menu and special diets and allergies are also catered for.
Fresh drinking water is always available and all meals and snacks are inclusive.
