Ashbourne Day Nursery Bootle

About this day nursery

Ashbourne Day Nursery Bootle is located on Stanley Road, offering a stimulating environment for children from three months up to preschool age. The nursery provides dedicated rooms for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers, alongside communal areas such as a soft play area, zen room, library, and garden.

A diverse range of activities is integrated into the daily routine, including forest school activities, yoga, Makaton, and even baby ballet, all designed to encourage physical and mental development. Situated opposite North Park and near St. Matthew’s Church, the nursery leverages its location for outdoor exploration and community engagement.

The curriculum follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), with experienced practitioners supporting children’s development as they prepare for school. Nutritious seasonal lunches and snacks are prepared daily, accommodating various dietary requirements and supporting the weaning process.

The nursery aims to create a "home from home" environment, fostering imagination through curiosity-inspired rooms and providing a safe outdoor space. Each staff member is trained in paediatric first aid to ensure the safety and well-being of all children.
