Our Mission

At Teddy Bears Day Nursery we firmly believe that every child has the right to reach their fullest potential in a safe and nurturing atmosphere.

Through valuing each child as an individual and understanding their needs, we promote attributes such as self-esteem, confidence and independence.

Our caring practitioners are dedicated to continuous professional development which enables them to be at the forefront of changes in the early year's curriculum, and to provide a wide variety of stimulating learning experiences tailor made to the developmental needs of each and every child.

Breakfast Club

Breakfast club runs from 7:30am to the start of school. Children have a choice of breakfast cereals and toast before being taken to school.

Playgroup Sessions

At Teddy Bears Day Nursery we understand the importance of children socialising with one another to learn and develop skills such as sharing and turn-taking. Our playgroup sessions are designed with this aspect in mind. We offer 2.5 or 3 hour sessions which can be used at anytime in the day.

Flexible Places

To accommodate parents who work shifts, we offer a few flexible places where you can choose different days each week for your child to attend. You can also use your 15h Free Childcare on a flexi place which allows your to spread it across the week to suit your needs.

Holiday Club

Holiday club is open during usual opening hours throughout all school holidays. ( Closed bank holidays)

We provide a rich and varied programme of events as well as outings.

Our Layout

The Nursery has three rooms dedicated to the care of your children. They are laid out to support children's learning and development with age appropriate resources to stimulate and excite children's learning.

Children move through the nursery rooms, not only chronologically, but as the practitioners and parents feel that your child is ready to face the challenges of the older age groups.
