Explore Loversall Farm Day Nursery
A place to nurture, learn, develop and grow ‘happy, healthy, aspiring and talented children'
Child development within the Early Years is crucial and sets the foundation for future learning. We believe that children learn and develop best when they feel happy, safe and secure in their surroundings. Loversall Farm Day Nursery is dedicated to providing high quality care and education to all children within the early years by working in close partnerships with parents and carers, offering children consistency throughout their learning journey. Through ongoing observation and assessment, passionate practitioners will identify what children already know and can do and use children’s knowledge, interests and experiences to plan an effective Early Years curriculum to support future learning.

The British values are at the heart of our curriculum.

We will support children to further explore the world in which they live by providing opportunities for children to understand that they are an important part of a diverse society.
