About this day nursery

Little Green House Nursery, located in Bridgnorth, has been providing high-quality childcare and education since 2014. The nursery is open year-round from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, with a short closure between Christmas and New Year.

They cater to children from 4 months old until they transition to school, offering both full-year and term-time-only sessions. The nursery prides itself on its child-centred approach, aiming to ignite imaginations and instil a love of learning from an early age.

They strongly believe in the benefits of outdoor learning, encouraging children to explore and connect with nature beyond the traditional classroom setting. Healthy eating is also a key focus, with an emphasis on expanding children's palates and fostering a sense of culinary adventure.

Little Green House is deeply rooted in the local community, actively engaging in positive ways. The nursery is set in a charming red-brick house with an intimate learning environment, small class sizes, a magnificent Wild Garden, adjacent play areas, and a unique sensory room designed for therapeutic play and exploration.

The admissions process involves an enquiry, a visit, an application, and finally accepting a place with a registration fee.

Our ethos

Our ethos is to nurture each child’s independence through the highest quality education, inspired by a child-centred approach and a belief that it's never too early to instil a love of learning. We believe in taking learning beyond the confines of the classroom, offering children the opportunity to explore, engage, and connect with nature. Our approach encourages children to broaden their palates, explore the art of cooking, and embrace the adventure of trying new and varied foods. We are proud to be a local nursery that engages with the local community in a positive way.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff provide effective support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They understand individual needs and work closely with parents and external professionals to plan next steps, ensuring children receive appropriate support. Additional funding is used to further support development and close gaps in learning. Tailored strategies and adapted approaches promote inclusion and continuity of learning. This enables children with SEND to fully access learning and make good progress from their starting points.

Outdoor space

During a scavenger hunt in the garden, children count and compare the conkers they have collected. Outdoor play is offered as an alternative for children who do not want to sleep, supporting children's choices, individual routines and physical development.

My little boy has been attending Little Green House for nearly a year now. We were made to feel so welcome, and the nursery had a very warm feeling. The staff consistently go above and beyond to support both parents and children, and we have been truly impressed by the professionalism and attentiveness of every team member. I am immensely grateful to Little Green House for all they have done and continue to do for my son.

The team at little green house are absolutely brilliant. We were nervous about our son starting nursery as my husband and I are both working parents, but they made the transition so easy. We're kept updated of the days goings on, and the team overall are just really friendly and helpful. I would recommend little green house to anyone looking for a nursery around Bridgnorth.

A great nursery that both our kids have had a wonderful time at. As they move up through the different age-group rooms, the kids get a real range of experiences and are supported by lovely staff, who develop real bonds with the children. Regular updates and photos are available through the app, which also allows easy messaging with staff. There's some great extra, out of hours events- Christmas carols etc. which are a nice opportunity to see some of their nursery buddies.

Our son loves his days at little greenhouse. He is always so keen to go through the door. I love getting updates of what he’s been doing through the day, either crafty creative things inside or playing in the beautiful garden and the mud kitchen. The app keeps me updated on his mealtimes and bum changes. Staff in his room are always easy to contact and very quick to respond. I highly recommend
