Welcome to Chestnut Nursery – Where Every Day is an Adventure!

 

At Chestnut Nursery, every child is celebrated, every family is valued, and every day is filled with joy, learning, and adventure. We pride ourselves on creating a nurturing environment where children thrive emotionally, socially, and academically.

 Here’s what Ofsted had to say about us:

“Children happily enter the vibrant and richly resourced nursery. Staff greet children with enthusiasm, love, and affection, which helps children to feel safe and secure. Staff celebrate everyone’s uniqueness. This helps the culturally diverse families and staff team to feel respected, valued, and included.”

 But don’t just take their word for it! Parents and children agree that Chestnut Nursery is a place they love:

  •      🌟 “My child runs into nursery every day with a smile. She’s made so many friends and loves the outdoor play area!” – Parent.
  •      🌟 “I love helping with Shaggy and Scooby, and we get to grow vegetables too!” – Adventurer, Age 4.
  •      🌟 “The team here made going back to work so much easier. They care for my baby as if she were their own!” – Parent.
