About this day nursery

ABC Nurseries (Coventry) 20 Ltd provides childcare for children from 9 months up to four years old, operating for 51 weeks a year and closing only for Bank Holidays. The nursery is committed to offering a flexible session plan to accommodate the needs of busy parents, with options including morning, afternoon, full day, and extended day sessions.

They divide children into three groups: Toddlers, Raindrops, and Pre-Schoolers, with specific minimum attendance requirements for each group to ensure consistent development. The curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage, encompassing personal, social, emotional development, mathematics, physical development, expressive arts and design, literacy, communication and language, and understanding of the world.

They actively encourage parental involvement through a Parents' Forum and welcome volunteers. The nursery emphasises strong transitions, both between internal age groups and when children move on to school, sharing learning journals and inviting teachers for visits.

Located in Coventry, ABC Nurseries aims to provide a nurturing and educational environment focused on learning, discovery, and growth.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is strong. Gaps in learning are quickly identified, and action is taken to seek any additional support children need in partnership with parents; staff work closely with other professionals to set targets of support, which are regularly reviewed and updated as needed.

Outdoor space

Children benefit from plenty of fresh air and exercise and enjoy spending lots of time outdoors, using areas such as an 'imaginary garden' to re-enact stories. They also run around the garden to test kites they have made, showing regular outdoor, physical play.

I have been sending my children to ABC nursery for 3 years and the care they have recieved has been absolutely fantastic. The staff are welcoming, friendly, supportive, and constantly go out of their way to make sure the children are thriving and happy. My kids look forward to going to nursery and have formed really close bonds with the other children and carers. I feel really happy leaving them at ABC as I know they’re in such good hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend the nursery to anyone considering it.
