Claylands Nursery is a safe haven, well away from traffic, rivers, fumes or houses, set in extensive secure paddocks and gardens for the children to enjoy.
The Nursery is located on a non-working farm in purpose- built farm steadings. We keep small animals for the children to care for. The children are outside taking advantage of the space, freedom and countryside environment. There is a hard area for gross motor skills as well as high quality equipment to encourage imaginative and physical play.

We have specialist fully qualified teams in our baby room, toddler room and pre-school room. Our mature, qualified staff are long-term and we have a very good reputation locally for the quality of our staff and management.

Our Nursery Cook/housekeeper Angela makes all home cooked meals and snacks/baking, from scratch daily. This a better experience for the children, who eat home cooking in a relaxed and homely environment.

The children are able to use the garden as an extension of the nursery playroom, taking their activities and snacks outside. Outdoor play has been proved in so many studies to be best for children’s development, and at Claylands we provide more space and freedom to explore than other nurseries can.
We have a mini-beast garden, a composting garden, our pet rabbit and our family of birds, as well as many wild birds and squirrels.
