We are a children's nursery offering continuous day care and education for children aged from 2 to 4 years, serving Elmstead Market and the surrounding area. Housed in a bright, spacious and modern building the Nursery is situated within the grounds of Elmstead Primary School. Our close links with the school enable our children to enjoy an easy transition from nursery to school.
The Nursery is run by the teacher, Mrs Sandra Davison, and a team of experienced and dedicated professionals, most of whom have been with us for a good number of years. Our aim is that every child will experience a broad and balanced curriculum, in an environment that is happy, caring and stimulating.

The Nursery is a purpose built, bright and modern building. The interior is open plan but has various activity areas such as a reading corner, role play area, creative table and sand and water play.
As well as a spacious interior we also have a large outdoor play area comprising a grassed area with play equipment, a mud kitchen and a sandpit, a covered section, which enables outdoor play even in all weathers and our newly developed wildlife section, which encourages the children to learn about nature.

Special Afternoon Session on Friday: Cooking Club - children will be making many different types of food to bring home and eat. The children can choose from a wide range of activities appropriate for their age and stages of development. We offer activities in all the areas of learning as specified in the Early Years Foundation Stage.
Children have an entitlement to fifteen hours free Nursery education per week from the term after their third birthday. If a funded child attends more than 15 hours a week they are charged at an hourly rate of 5.00 as are non funded children. Working parents can claim up to 30 hours of funding if both parents/carers work the equivalent of 16 hours per week at the national living wage.
Don't forget that we have a board where you can share information with us about your child's achievements or special experiences outside Nursery. It can be about anything such as learning to ride a bike, the arrival of a new baby or going somewhere interesting. The Wow! Board is on the doors of the large cupboard near the entrance area and nearby are star shaped cards, pens and blu-tack in a basket.

All 4 of my children have attended Elmstead nursery. The youngest is still there. The eldest now in college. It is a great nursery. Small numbers mean the children get more 1 on 1 time. The staff are all lovely and some of the staff now we're there when my eldest was there. Elmstead nursery gives children the best start and totally prepares them for school. I would and have recommended Elmstead nursery

My little boy joined Elmstead Nursery in October. He is only 2 and a half which is younger than most of the children. The dedicated teachers and assistant look after all the children amazingly and take your child’s early education very seriously. To say we have been impressed in an understatement. Highly recommend.
