About this day nursery

Ashfield House Day Nursery, a family-owned establishment in Bradford, is dedicated to delivering exceptional care within the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. The nursery's core philosophy centres on making learning an enjoyable experience, achieved through a diverse array of activities that foster curiosity, creativity, and play, enabling children to explore their surroundings and develop crucial skills.

They strongly emphasise a collaborative partnership with parents and carers to ensure each child thrives at their individual pace in a secure, happy, and supportive setting. Ashfield House has invested significantly in custom-designed facilities, offering stimulating indoor and outdoor play areas.

Their team of highly qualified Early Years Practitioners are carefully selected for their passion in helping children reach their full potential through continuous encouragement. The nursery implements a key-person system, assigning a dedicated staff member to each child to build a strong relationship, ensuring children feel cherished and secure.

Parents receive regular updates on their child's day, including eating and sleeping patterns, mood, activities, and highlights.
