Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Hoddesdon

About this day nursery

Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Hoddesdon provides a welcoming and nurturing environment for children from three months up to five years old. The nursery is designed with dedicated areas for different age groups, including a cosy baby room, a vibrant toddler room, and a pre-school space focusing on school readiness.

Individual learning and development are supported through tailored experiences and activities, all while following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum. The nursery boasts a fantastic garden area and a sensory room to stimulate curiosity and extend learning outdoors.

Children enjoy seasonal, healthy lunches and snacks, with dietary requirements and weaning processes fully catered for. The curriculum emphasises a curiosity approach, incorporating diverse activities such as arts and crafts, sensory play, and story time.

The nursery uses a communication app to keep parents informed of their child’s daily activities, progress, and educational plans.

What it's like

Children come happily to the nursery, separating well from parents and eager to start their day. They settle quickly, forming close bonds with staff and confidently exploring new resources and activities in a positive environment that reflects the nursery's ethos of encouraging resilient, curious learners.
