At Leigh’s Nurseries, we pride ourselves on the quality of care which we provide to all the children who come to our nursery. We know that quality of care is the most important factor for parents when selecting day care. We strive to ensure that all of the children feel happy, safe and secure. Safety and welfare are our top priorities. We create a vibrant and inspiring learning environment that supports children of all ages. Making sure your child has a fun and fulfilling day is very important to us. We also encourage parents & carers to be interested and involved in your child’s day at nursery.
In our nursery we use the Montessori method which is completely child-centered. Our open plan setting gives children the freedom to socialise and explore their own space. The Montessori approach fits the needs of each child as they develop and learn to understand and adapt to the world. The environment is very structured and carefully prepared by our trained staff. Your child can choose, according to his or her own interests, which activities to pursue. If you would like to know more about Montessori, please do ask.
Healthy meals are cooked daily on site by our qualified chef. We can work with you if your child has any special dietary requirements.
Nursery fees can be paid by bacs transfer, the government tax free childcare scheme, or salary sacrifice voucher. We do not accept payment by cash, cheque or card.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ring and ask for Miss Leigh, Miss Jade or Miss Laura.
