Fairytale Forest Day Nursery

Once Upon a Time, we integrated Wildlife & their habitats to one of the most refreshing Theorist approaches to Learning.. Inspired by the work of Rudolf Steiner & his approach to Teaching, Learning & Development, both of our childrens rooms are adapted visually to create a beautiful woodland-inspired habitat for extending learning through creativity & the senses, promoting an abundance of messy play.
With depictions of specific learning areas, a theme of British habitats, and an expansive rainbow from our Bluebell Woodland to our Enchanted Garden.
For everyone who comes to The Fairytale Forest, we offer a full range of colours that evoke various feelings.
Fairytale Forest Day Nursery is Located in Bury, a quaint countryside West Sussex village between Pulborough and Arundel.
This room is designed with the most significant developmental milestones, like potty training, in mind for this age group. It is close to the miniature restrooms and has a separate nappy changing area next door, so that their frequent and urgent needs can be best supported to support their development and emotional safety.
The Steiner ethos combined with wildlife habitats will help your child develop a love for the world around them and start learning at an advantage by being visually stimulated, creating the best baseline environment for your child to feel ready and inspired to learn. Learning is inspired by the natural outdoor environments.
Toadstools, fairies, acorns, trees, Cottage Garden flowers..all encase this lovely Pre-School room, helping to create the magical feel of The Enchanted Garden.
Children's imaginations can wander in this setting because of the lovely natural light and the spacious sense created by the skylights. This enables them to feel creative and take charge of their own learning style.
As we help kids get ready for their next milestone—the switch to primary school—we teach them virtues like sharing and taking turns.
The contrasting opposites of light & dark stimulate literacy in this cosy corner.
Dressed with comfortable social seating, fluffy night time owls, old fashioned lamp posts and starry skies, the peaceful midnight blue draws children to gather together to read.
A comforting zone between the two main rooms, this promotes a studious, elegant patch that enables Communication & Language, spurring Social Development between peers and teaches the children to respect and enjoy books, making literacy & expanding vocabulary fun.
We're incredibly fortunate with our beautiful countryside location and a wealth of outside areas, nestled in the heart of rural West Sussex with views over the South Downs.
Additionally, we think that animals are extremely helpful to a child's growth in many ways.
Taking care of animals fosters a nurturing quality, a respect for the natural world, and a sense of responsibility.
Working with children is a hugely rewarding career, and being in a position to help children learn, grow, and develop is a huge responsibility and privilege.
If you have a passion for childcare and are committed to furthering a child's development, and want to work in a positive and fun environment that will encourage you to fulfil your goals, and for a company that will provide excellent support and ongoing development and training then we'd love to hear from you.
