The manager and staff establish strong partnerships with some professionals, such as health visitors, to support children. They swiftly identify and address any gaps in their learning and development. Outdoor space Children enjoy running, jumping, climbing and balancing in the outdoor play area. This supports their physical development. Children benefit from fresh air and exercise. They sometimes grow plants from seeds and hunt for bugs. However, there are fewer opportunities for learning experiences outside, meaning children are occasionally less engaged outdoors than in the playrooms. ## Parent Reviews of Eden Garden Nursery 5.0 (3) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjUIpRDCq9--0Kp0-Tvpxq7hV5HEtnXsieQ9URUY7OjD56OkKXoC=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Andrew Lister 5 years ago My daughter attended this Nursery and I found the staff to be so professional and caring.
