Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

All children, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), learn to brush their teeth, pour drinks, and serve their own lunch. Children with SEND, and children who speak English as an additional language, are provided for very well. Staff work well with external agencies and appropriate plans are developed to support children and their learning. The manager also uses funding to employ specialist, bilingual support staff, which helps communication and supports children and families to express their needs.

Outdoor space

Staff are aware that some children may not have access to outside space, therefore, they plan for children to play outside every day. Children run around freely, enjoying the large climbing frame and slide. Older children visit the forest area where they climb trees, hang lanterns and learn to be respectful of their environment.

I cannot speak highly enough of Hamilton Nursery and the incredible support they have provided to my family. From the very first day, the staff has shown not only professionalism but also genuine care and compassion for both my child and me. As a disabled parent, I was initially worried about finding a nursery that would be understanding of my unique situation, but Hamilton Nursery has gone above and beyond to ensure I feel welcomed, included, and supported. Their team is attentive and nurturing, always going the extra mile to create a safe, engaging, and educational environment for my child. I am consistently impressed with the thoughtful activities they plan and the way they encourage each child's development with patience and creativity. But what truly sets Hamilton Nursery apart is how they’ve been so supportive of me as a parent. They’ve made me feel empowered and reassured, always open to communication and understanding of my needs. It’s more than just a nursery; it’s a community that has given my child a loving, home-away-from-home experience. I am so grateful for everything they’ve done, and I wholeheartedly recommend Hamilton Nursery to any family!

Such an amazing nursery. You receive smiles and kindness as you enter the door. My daughter found it difficult when she started, but the staff couldn't do enough to keep her smiling. She has made beautiful relationships with all the staff and gained so much confidence and many friends. It's soon time for her to leave and I know she will miss all the staff, lovely hot meals and fun activities. We're very grateful for all you have done!

My daughter has been attending for 1 year now. Hamilton nursery is amazing and I can't recommend it enough. The staff are all wonderful, they truly care about each child and go out of their way to make each child feel special. We are always greeted with warm smiles every morning. At the end of the day, staff let you know what your child has done and eaten, they take the time to speak to you and ensure you know everything. As well as updating the app so you can check throughout the day. Staff and managers are always on hand to answer any questions you have and support you in every way they can. Special shout out to Jenny, Michelle, Molly, Farha, Pram, Shauna and Donia. Honestly I could name everyone as each member of staff is brilliant.

Hamilton Nursery is truly exceptional. From the moment we first stepped through the doors, it felt less like a childcare centre and more like an extension of our home. The warmth, care, and dedication shown by every single member of the team is beyond anything we could have hoped for. Jenny, the manager, is the heart and soul of the nursery. She leads with genuine compassion, strength, and clarity. Her deep commitment to every child, family, and staff member is unmistakable. You can feel her passion in every corner, from the way she knows each child individually to the inclusive, safe, and loving environment she has built. What makes Hamilton Nursery so special is the strength of the whole team. Every single staff member brings something unique and wonderful. It’s rare to find a place where every single person makes a meaningful impact. The level of care, professionalism, and love that goes into every day at Hamilton Nursery is something truly extraordinary. We feel incredibly lucky to be part of this community. Knowing our child is in such capable, kind, and loving hands gives us peace of mind every single day.

Our daughter absolutely loves coming to nursery. She has developed leaps and bounds there. Her speech is brilliant and she is so independent. She loves being with her friends and we can't speak highly enough about the staff. Every single one just wants to best for the children. Definitely recommend!
