Arcadia Nursery
Arcadia is a purpose-built nursery designed around the concept of free-play. We adopt an ethos of child-led learning which focuses on each child as an individual, considering their individual needs and interests. At Arcadia, we believe that the chance to learn is all around us and every child should grow in their own unique way.

We strive to provide high-quality experiences for the children in our care. We believe in working collaboratively with children and families to provide a high standard of care. Your child will make progress every day and we will ensure you are kept informed of their challenges, discoveries and achievements.

Healthy eating is essential for proper growth and development in childhood (NHS Health Scotland, 2015). At Arcadia nursery, we are very conscious of the importance of both providing healthy food within the nursery and also promoting positive attitudes towards healthy eating.

Our menus are carefully planned in accordance with 'Setting the Table: Nutritional guidance and food standards for early years childcare providers in Scotland (NHS Health Scotland, 2015).The menus provide fresh, wholesome and balanced meals and snacks. Children are encouraged to enjoy their meals in a positive and sociable environment.
University research at Arcadia investigates how toddlers and young children learn to think and talk. The first few years of life are critical for linguistic, cognitive and social development. The generous participation of families like yours makes it possible for us to better understand what happens in these early years.
Based at the Kings Buildings campus in the south east of the city. The local community offers many opportunities with various parks, Blackford Hill and the local library nearby. Set in the heart of the countryside, Arcadia @ Easter Bush is located at the Easter Bush campus. The large purpose-built setting provides children with the opportunity to grow and learn in a natural environment.

Too good but a little bit expensive. This nursary is really good, but compare with other nursaries, it is a little bit more expensive. However, if you work for University of Edinburgh, you pay with your gross salary, and that's how it ends up being cheaper than other ones.
On the other hand, my kids love it, they do messy play almost every day, this is good for the kids but you need to buy them a lot of clothes. The staff is really helpful with the kids, they adapt really well to the parents 'parenting styles' and rules. Even if some of the staff speak a second language, we told them to speak

My kids love it there. They go outside despite the weather, which is good since Edinburgh weather does not always cooperate. They are very good with them and it is very international environment for the kids. I really like it, though nurseries are so expensive in the uk!
