Central to the work of Mill Hill Nursery School is the creation of a caring safe and secure environment along with the promotion of equality of opportunity. The staff aim to ensure that everyone feels respected and confident. All children from our youngest babies, to our 2, 3 and 4 year olds should feel valued and able to fully participate in school life.
We aim to create an inclusive, supportive atmosphere in which children can be independent and challenged in their development; where families are welcomed as partners and relationships are firmly based on mutual respect and trust. In order to realise the vision we treat children as unique and value their differences.

The nursery is absolutely fantastic, the staff do a brilliant job nurturing and caring for our children helping them progress further in their development. The staff work so well in partnership with parents and others and I could not recommend them all enough. The nursery itself has a warm, welcoming feel and feels like home for the children. Without a doubt 10 out of 10.
