From the The Old Barn Day Nursery
At the Old Barn Day Nursery, we collaborate with parents to provide the greatest results for all of the children entrusted to our care.
Our high-quality service guarantees that kids can grow up in a cosy, secure, and caring environment while also developing socially, intellectually, culturally, physically, and emotionally.
Our development programmes are age-appropriate and include a variety of creative activities, languages, beginner computer skills, and emergent reading and writing to support the children's growth.
Our employees' welfare and care are of utmost significance to us.
We are honoured to have received a Glassdoor Employees Choice Award and to have been placed 14th in the entire UK.
The Employees Choice Awards, which recognise the Best Places to Work in 2020, are purely determined by employee comments posted on Glassdoor, one of the biggest employment and recruiting websites in the world, on their workplaces, work environments, and companies.
The nursery manager, Rebekah Walters, has extensive experience working with children and is backed by a staff group that is both highly skilled and devoted.
However, parents are always invited to visit and communicate with us thanks to our open-door policy.
