About this day nursery

Jack & Jills Childcare Goosewell provides a nurturing and stimulating environment where children aged 3-4 years thrive. Children are happy and eager to attend, settling quickly into the nursery routine.

The friendly and welcoming staff have a clear vision for what children should learn, with a strong focus on school readiness. They engage children in a variety of activities, from exciting bug hunts to learning about minibeasts and observing the fascinating life cycles of caterpillars.

The nursery places particular emphasis on supporting children with special educational needs and/or disabilities, with staff utilising targeted plans and resources to ensure significant progress for every child. Children enjoy access to a secure garden area throughout the day, confidently putting on their wellington boots and coats to play in the rain.

This outdoor space also features a planting section, where staff support children in learning about growing vegetables and healthy eating. Inside, staff provide good opportunities for children to develop an understanding of mathematical concepts and encourage personal independence through activities such as group teeth brushing.

This term-time setting ultimately prepares children effectively for their transition to school.
