About this day nursery

Chez Nanny Limited (Preparatory & Educational Nursery) in Burnley, established in 1985, provides childcare for children aged 0–4 years. 30pm.

With an overall effectiveness rating of Good from its latest Ofsted inspection on 9th September 2025, the nursery focuses on comprehensive development. Leaders promptly identify children who may require additional support, involving relevant external professionals and regularly reviewing progress with parents to ensure effective strategies are quickly implemented.

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are well-supported to make continuous progress. The curriculum is well-sequenced to foster children's communication, independence, and physical development.

Children thrive in adventurous outdoor play, particularly enjoying the mud kitchen where they develop imagination and large muscle movements crucial for early writing skills. Staff ensure daily fresh air and exercise, and outdoor activities like climbing steep slopes and whizzing down slides are popular.

The setting also promotes a strong understanding of life in modern Britain, teaching about different religions, festivals, and cultures to help children feel valued. Strong partnerships with parents are a cornerstone of the nursery, with staff providing detailed daily updates and support, while also forming strong links with feeder schools to ensure smooth transitions for children.
