About this day nursery
Faversham House Day Nursery provides a nurturing environment across two characterful buildings by Faversham Creek. The nursery caters to children from 3 months up to school age, offering distinct rooms and activities tailored to each developmental stage.
The Baby Room, for infants aged 3 months to 2 years, prioritises individualised care through a key carer system and short taster sessions to establish trust and address specific needs. The Toddler Room, for 2 to 3-year-olds, offers a stimulating area encouraging exploration with natural objects and imaginative play, alongside communal mealtimes and trips to local parks.
The Pre-School prepares children aged 3 years to school age for their transition to 'big school' by developing essential skills such as phonics, numbers, and self-care, while still integrating ample time for creative, open-ended play and outdoor adventures. The nursery also features dedicated Art and Sensory Rooms accessible to all age groups, fostering cognitive development and unique sensory experiences.
Children enjoy varied, nutritionally balanced meals prepared by a resident chef, accommodating various dietary requirements. The setting operates year-round, closing only for a week at the end of August and between Christmas and New Year.
