Overview
At Acorns Day Nursery, we pride ourselves on offering a homely, nurturing environment where every child is known, valued and celebrated. Our cosy rooms, soft furnishings and welcoming staff team help children feel relaxed and secure from the moment they arrive, just like being at home.
We care for children from birth to five years, supporting each stage of development with age-appropriate activities, resources and experiences. From snuggly baby spaces with sensory play, to imaginative role play corners and early writing areas for pre-schoolers, our setting is designed to spark curiosity and a love of learning.
Our nursery is fully inclusive, welcoming children of all backgrounds and abilities. We work in partnership with families to meet individual needs and ensure that every child can take part, thrive and feel that they truly belong.
We offer all government funding options, including 9 months olds, 2 year olds and 3-4 year olds, making high-quality childcare more affordable for families. Our friendly team is happy to guide you through the different funding choices and help you find the option that works best for you.
At Acorns Day Nursery your child will:
- Build confidence in a safe, homely setting
- Develop key skills through play-based learning
- Form strong, positive relationships with caring adults and peers
- Enjoy healthy routines and plenty of outdoor play
- Be supported to reach their full potential before starting school
We’d love to welcome you for a visit so you can experience our warm, homely nursery for yourself.
