About this day nursery

Thrive Childcare & Education operates Corner House Nursery on Lawton Road, Stoke-on-Trent, dedicated to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment for young children. Their approach integrates the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework with hands-on learning experiences, fostering skills crucial for both nursery life and beyond.

The nursery champions child-led learning and free-flow play, utilising a wide array of naturalistic resources and outdoor equipment to encourage exploration. They emphasise physical development, ensuring children are active for at least three hours daily, with dedicated Physical Development Champions designing activities that boost confidence and teamwork.

Beyond physical growth, Thrive focuses on the holistic well-being of each child, incorporating music, dance, creative arts, and language development into daily routines. They also introduce children to cooking and baking, fostering a sense of pride in their culinary creations.

The nursery believes in strong parent partnerships, facilitating this through e-learning journals via the ParentZone app, regular newsletters, and parent evenings. They celebrate key milestones with events like graduation ceremonies, and offer Forest School sessions to connect children with nature, promoting self-confidence through outdoor learning.

The nursery provides nappies, wipes, formula milk, and all meals and snacks within their fees, ensuring a comprehensive package for families.
