Pop Up Day Nursery

About this day nursery

Pop Up Day Nursery operates two locations in Wellingborough and Irchester, offering flexible, high-quality childcare designed to meet the needs of modern families. The nurseries provide safe, nurturing, and inspiring environments where children can learn, explore, and grow with the support of experienced staff.

The Wellingborough nursery caters to children aged 6 months to 5 years, while the Irchester nursery accepts children from 9 months to 5 years. Both settings feature a dedicated cosy baby room for the youngest children, alongside a combined toddler and pre-school area where older children can interact, learn, and develop collaboratively.

Emphasising emotional development as much as academic learning, Pop Up Day Nursery actively uses the Zones of Regulation framework to help children understand and manage their feelings. This approach is adapted for all ages, from simple facial expressions and naming emotions for babies, to using colour visuals and conversations about feelings for older children.

The nurseries are committed to fostering confident, capable, and independent children, preparing them for the next stage of their educational journey. Their curriculum is rooted in the principles of Development Matters, promoting autonomy, emotional security, and personal responsibility through daily routines and engaging play.

' Pop Up Day Nursery also boasts spacious outdoor areas and a wide array of engaging activities and learning experiences to ensure every day is enjoyable and enriching.
