About this day nursery

Treetops Kindergarden, established in 2020 in Cannock, operates from Monday to Friday, 7am to 6pm, on a term-time basis, caring for children aged 0-4 years. The nursery received a 'Good' rating in its latest Ofsted inspection on 16 December 2024.

Leaders and staff prioritise communication and language development, utilising activities such as Christmas crafts and picture prompts to enhance understanding. The curriculum is designed to offer new experiences not always available at home, such as cooking sessions for older children, fostering practical life skills.

The key person system focuses on building strong attachments by carefully matching children with staff members they connect with, ensuring emotional security from the outset. Treetops Kindergarden also works closely with external agencies to support children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND), providing one-to-one teaching when necessary.

The learning environment is thoughtfully designed to promote continuous physical development, with babies and toddlers having access to climbing equipment both indoors and outdoors, encouraging adventurous exploration. Parents have noted that staff effectively meet children's individual needs and maintain continuity with home routines.

The nursery also fosters independence in older children through initiatives like combined lunchtimes and self-serving opportunities.

My daughter has been at treetops for 2 years nearly and I cannot fault her care and support. Shes autistic and can find it very difficult and overwhelming and the staff at treetops work so hard with her, they try their hardest to keep her calm, happy and content. They have supported me throughout my daughter journey too. Such lovely kind girls❤️

I couldn’t recommend this nursery more. The staff are fantastic, friendly and caring. They are engaging and always thinking of great activities. My son always comes home happy. It’s not easy letting something so precious to you be in the care of others, but I am confident leaving my son here, in the knowledge he is loved as if he was one of their own.

My son has spent the last 12 months with Treetops. He's had an amazing time, his confidence has doubled since he started. The staff have been wonderful, they've gone above and beyond! He has learnt so much and it was clear he loved going to nursery. He couldn't get himself through the doors on a morning quick enough! I'm absolutely gutted it's time for him to leave & start school! Thank you all at Treetops!

My child loves attending treetops, he’s comfortable with the staff, enjoys being there and seems happy in himself when there. He’s came on so much since being there.
