The Brambles Day Nursery

About this day nursery

The Brambles Day Nursery in Taunton is dedicated to fostering a safe, stimulating, and joyful environment where every child can grow and achieve their full potential. The nursery believes in a curriculum that is both exciting and balanced, drawing from all aspects of the Early Years Foundation Stage to promote healthy development.

A key focus is placed on a high-quality learning environment that prioritises children's social and emotional well-being, embedding British values such as kindness, helpfulness, and respect. This approach helps children develop an awareness of themselves, others, and their community.

The nursery strongly advocates for outdoor learning, integrating a Forest School approach into daily activities, which offers significant benefits including confidence building, problem-solving skills, and a positive relationship with nature. The Brambles Day Nursery operates in partnership with the charity ‘Go Commando,’ providing support to Royal Marine families and civilian families alike.

They emphasise the importance of collaboration between parents and providers to ensure each child thrives.

Our ethos

The Brambles Day Nursery believes all children have the right to learn through exciting, stimulating and fun experiences which encourage them to be healthy and be happy and safe. In addition, they have the right to be valued and respected. We provide a relevant, balanced and exciting curriculum based on all aspects of the Early Years Foundation Stage. We feel it’s important to have a high-quality learning environment where the social and emotional needs of children are given top priority. British values are embedded in our day to day curriculum, teaching children to be kind, helpful and respectful, making children aware of themselves, others and the community. The learning environment is fundamental in providing the children with a sense of security, belonging and effective learning. We provide the children with a learning environment that is appropriate to their age and individual needs. This will be monitored and reviewed on a regular basis to maintain the effectiveness of the provision. We strongly believe in the importance of outdoor learning. There are enormous benefits to outdoor learning, some of these include risk taking, confidence building, problem solving. We will be incorporating forest school into nursery life.
