Services
We are a professional, experienced team who offer a homely, exciting nursery experience to all children. We provide outstanding education through play and work to excellent standards to ensure that each child feels safe, happy and valued. We are registered through Ofsted for children up to 8 years old, term-time only with the extension of a fun holiday club.
We are very proud of our highly qualified, experienced and well balanced team. Our role is to encourage, support and facilitate each child's natural learning and consider ourselves positive role models. At Sunshine we provide a minimum of 1, often 2 or 3 staff above the ratio at any one time.
We also have a number of staff able to cover in emergencies or trips who are familiar to the children, our philosophies, routines and parents to minimise the use of unknown agency staff.We have our own apprenticeship programme and also encourage students from a variety of schools and colleges to carry out their placements with us.

A supervised, planned activity based on our theme, the children's individual targets, interests and also an area of development from the Early Years Foundation Stage. The children can choose what they would like to do, when and for how long by exploring their nursery space either on their own or with their friends.
There are a variety of fun and interactive activities run by the same staff your children play with during term-time. We create a balance for the children to be able to have a relaxed and quiet time or as busy a time as they choose. Although there is a routine, it is more flexible and adaptable to the daily choices and balance of the children attending.
We include you as parents in all decisions regarding your child's development, achievements, interactions, behaviour and discipline. We communicate with you on a daily basis regarding particular things your child has done or of any incidents and offer a private confidential meeting with your child's key-person each term.

2 of my 4 children have attended Sunshine Nursery. My son back in 2013/14 and my daughter has attended since she was 1 yr old. At first in the lovely baby room and now in the ‘big side’
I can’t speak highly enough of Kate and her team. My daughter suffers life threatening allergies and therefore needs extra care and supervision.
I would not leave… my daughter with any other child care provider ! Kate has been extremely understanding and showed genuine concern for my child. She has ensured that my she is safe and included at all times. Changing activities and snack times

My son has been attending for 4 weeks and he’s already progressed so much! Sunshine is such a safe and fun place for each child to be themselves and explore their world. Kate and the staff are incredible at what they do and I have no doubt in my mind that my son is in the right hands and having so much fun, it’s a big giveaway when he always comes running out with a huge grin on his face. Thank you so much Sunshine!!

My son and I are currently putting out the Christmas decorations and we have just found the lovely ones which he made at Sunshine nursery!! He is now 5 and still talks about his wonderful time here.I cannot… recommend enough...He learnt so much,gained unbelievable confidence which has set him up so well for school. The transition was an easy one thanks to the lovely Sunshine! The staff are amazing and completely committed to every single child. Personally, I had a tricky time health wise whilst my son was there and the support I received from the staff was truly amazing...It made the whole

I couldn't recommend Sunshine highly enough. The nursery is truly outstanding and the staff are simply amazing. I just have my 21 month old at Sunshine now and he loves every minute. Everyone helped him settle in perfectly and he thinks of it as his second home now and the staff his extended family. My 6 and 5 year old love having the opportunity… to still belong to Sunshine by attending the holiday club with their little brother. All their interests are catered for and they come away having had a wonderful experience every time. I wouldn't send my children anywhere else. Kate and her amazing

As a Grandma living in Yorkshire, I have not had a lot of contact with Sunshine Nursery but from what I've seen, I feel that Sally and Stuart's choice of Sunshine for Patrick and Joe could not have been bettered. It has been an excellent start for them and I would like to thank everyone there for their hard work and dedication.
