The Wantage Nursery & Preschool

Our children love their time with us (look below at what our parents say).
We understand choosing childcare is a big decision so we have an initial free play date with you and your child to help you get to know us, then 2 free settling-in sessions before you start.
All our children get an excellent start in life through our high quality delivery of the OFSTED Early Years Curriculum.
Choosing the best childcare for you is a big decision so please arrange to come and see us to find out more.
We encourage everyone to get qualifications in childcare by sponsoring formal qualifications courses; we train everyone in Health and safety, safeguarding and paediatric first aid among others; and do our own monthly in-house training to keep everyone up to date on all our policies and procedures and best practice in childcare.
Our policies and procedures cover everything required by Ofsted and more.
All our team are fully trained on them when they start working for us and every month we do team training which includes reviewing these policies and procedures.
Every child has their own key worker who will observe them at play to learn what they are interested in.
They then plan play activities, based on each child's individual interests, that will help them learn and grow.
This is all led by the Early Years Curriculum.
All our toys and equipment are specific to your childs changing needs at each age and stage so we keep children safe, challenged and interested.
We plan our days activities around what your child enjoys and is interested in.
We gently encourage each child to extend their learning to cover all areas of learning in our early years curriculum so they become enthusiastic and independent learners prepared for the new challenges of big school.
Fees will vary depending on the hours you want and the age of your child.
To help with the cost of childcare there is government funding for 2 and 3 year olds and you can also benefit from government voucher schemes.
Our chef is passionate about giving our children tasty, healthy, freshly cooked meals every day and the children invariably devour it all!
As the children love our food so much weve put some of their favourite recipes into the nursery blog so you can have a go at home.
