How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders act promptly to put in place appropriate additional support for any child who may need this. Additional one-to-one support is available, and specific sensory resources have been funded to enhance the children's learning and development needs.

Well run nursery with excellent staff. My son loved going here. They seem to do a bit more in terms of outings trips etc.. which would be time consuming i think in terms of red tape etc.. Understand they are now expanding into additional premises. Well worth a look if your in the area.

i just wanted to say if anyone is looking for a nursery in the area you really should look into The Cosy Corner day nursery Thornhill Road. When my eldest little one needed a nursery placement I found this amazing place. within seconds of us viewing it we fell in love with the setting and the amazing staff. Today my youngest little one has now graduated from there. Since 2021 Cosy Corner has been a big part of our lives and honestly each and everyone involved in the nursery have become part of our family too. You really couldn't ask for a better nursery. The care, love, support and guidance in learning they provide is outstanding and you know your child is cared for as if they were their own child. Thank you Cosy Corner for giving my boys an amazing start to their education. It is a pleasure to have been able to have my boys in your care we will miss you all

We could not have hoped for a better start to our daughter’s journey in education. The Cosy Corner is the most welcoming place, where every member of staff always goes above and beyond to provide wonderful learning opportunities and experiences for everyone. The children are at the forefront of everything they do and the time we spent there has had a huge impact on our family. We have felt very lucky to be part of The Cosy Corner community. We cannot thank all the staff there enough! We would highly recommend this nursery!

Wonderful nursery. Caring, kind friendly staff. Children are extremely well cared for and lovingly educated and nurtured. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. The children are all very happy. My grandson has just left to go to school. I can't recommend this place enough. I will miss seeing them all.
