Complete Environments
Woosehill Day Nursery provides rich learning environments which are ideal spaces for the children to thrive in. We have a blend of educational resources with a home from home feel so that children consider our nursery to be a second home, where they enjoy learning, meals and rest.
We have two rooms, covering our age ranges: our Nest for the 0-2s and our Woodlands area - Preschool classroom which is for the 2-5s.
The Nest – A Nurturing Start for Our Youngest Explorers
The Nest is a spacious, calm, and welcoming environment designed to support up to 18 babies aged 0–2 years. Within this space, we have a specially designed area called The Little Nest, dedicated to our non-mobile babies. This secure and nurturing zone allows them to explore their surroundings safely and comfortably, with age-appropriate resources that stimulate their senses and support early development.
We understand the importance of rest in the early years, so The Nest includes a tranquil sleep room equipped with cots for our youngest babies. As they grow and become more mobile, they transition to sleep mats, supporting their independence and routine changes.
Outdoor Discovery and Growth
The Nest opens directly onto a private garden, thoughtfully arranged to encourage curiosity and exploration. Babies can enjoy sensory-rich outdoor experiences, from feeling different textures to observing nature. A small growing area invites even our littlest learners to engage in planting and caring for herbs and vegetables—fostering a connection with the natural world from the very beginning.
This gentle, responsive environment is designed to support each baby’s unique developmental journey, offering a balance of comfort, stimulation, and discovery!
The Pre-school (2-5s age group) The Woodlands Learning Environment
The Woodlands room is a bright, welcoming space designed to nurture up to 35 children as they prepare for their next transition to school. Our environment encourages independence and creativity through a strong emphasis on self-selection, allowing children to choose from a wide range of engaging activities and thoughtfully curated resources. Dedicated art areas inspire self-expression and exploration, giving children the freedom to experiment with different materials and techniques at their own pace.
Children benefit from seamless free-flow access between indoor and outdoor learning. Our large garden features a beautifully decked ‘outdoor classroom’—a covered space that supports year-round exploration and learning in nature.
Outdoor Highlights Include:
- A mud kitchen for sensory and imaginative play
- A soft play surface for safe physical development
This dynamic setting empowers children to make choices, follow their interests, and build the confidence and skills needed for their next educational journey!
