Overview
Magic Roundabout Nursery in Nottingham, part of the well-established Magic Roundabout Nurseries group with over 30 years of experience in early childhood education. Located just a five-minute walk from The Queen's Medical Centre (QMC) and next to Nottingham University Academy of Science and Technology (NUAST). Rooted in the Reggio Emilia approach, our setting brings the natural world indoors to inspire curiosity, exploration, and hands-on learning guided by each child's unique interests. We view children as capable, expressive learners and support them in shaping their own journey through play, conversation, and connection. Our dedicated educators work in close partnership with families to ensure every child feels seen, heard, and truly understood.
