Nutkins Nursery

About this day nursery

Nutkins Nursery, located in Romford, provides a warm and friendly childcare setting for children aged 2 to 4 years. 30pm, the day nursery (rated Good by Ofsted on its latest inspection on 10 March 2023) ensures children are greeted by their key person, fostering a strong sense of belonging.

The curriculum, effectively managed and understood by all staff, focuses on substantial progress across the seven areas of learning, ensuring children are engaged in a range of interesting and enjoyable activities. Children develop good communication and language skills through meaningful conversations, familiar stories, and expanding their vocabulary.

Mathematical concepts are integrated throughout the curriculum, with children counting, recognising colours and shapes, and applying this knowledge in their play. Nutkins Nursery excels in its provision for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), offering effective and targeted support, with the SENDCo collaborating with various professionals to ensure ongoing assistance.

Children benefit from daily fresh air and rigorous physical activity, and the day nursery also supports healthy lifestyles, including a recently introduced toothbrushing initiative.
