Little Lambs Nursery in Bristol

About this day nursery

Little Lambs Nursery, opening in January 2026, provides a stimulating and nurturing environment for children aged 3 months to 3 years. Located at Farrington's Farm, the nursery offers a unique blend of a purpose-designed Baby Room and expansive outdoor spaces on a working farm, complete with animals grazing nearby.

The nursery prioritises outdoor play, encouraging exploration and engagement with nature for physical health and adventure. A strong emphasis is placed on sustainability, teaching children about environmental responsibility through activities like gardening and recycling.

Nurturing is central to their ethos, with dedicated staff building strong relationships to support each child's emotional and social well-being. Currently, Little Lambs Nursery operates on a full-year model with full-day sessions only, ensuring consistency for children.

They have plans to expand by adding a dedicated preschool space for 3-4 year olds in the future. The daily rates are reviewed annually, and the nursery closes for bank holidays, staff training days, and a two-week Christmas break.

Families wishing to enrol for a January to April 2026 start can register for free, with guaranteed places during this period.

Our ethos

At Little Lambs Nursery, we believe in fostering a nurturing and loving environment where children can grow and thrive. Our ethos is built around three core principles: Outdoor Play: We prioritise outdoor play, understanding that nature offers a unique and essential environment for learning and development. Our expansive and well-equipped outdoor spaces encourage children to explore, imagine, and engage with the natural world, promoting physical health and a sense of adventure. We will strive to do this in all weather conditions, subject to a risk assessment and only when safe to do so. Sustainability: We are committed to teaching children the importance of sustainability. Through hands-on activities, such as gardening, recycling projects, and environmental education, we instil a respect for our planet and the knowledge that even the smallest actions can make a significant difference. Nurture: Every child at Little Lambs is valued and cherished. We provide a warm, supportive, and inclusive environment where individual needs are recognised and met. Our dedicated staff are tasked with building strong and caring relationships with each child, promoting their emotional and social well-being from 0-5 years.
