It became part of Natasha Richards' group in 2012, after she was so impressed by the quality of care her own children received there. The nursery is a close-knit setting, accommodating up to twenty-five children daily, with dedicated spaces for babies, toddlers, two to three-year-olds, and pre-school children. Additionally, the kindergarten provides before and after-school care for children up to eleven years old. The outdoor enclosed garden offers daily play opportunities, and the nursery serves all primary schools in the Wolstanton area. Meals are freshly prepared on-site by the nursery’s Catering Manager. What it's like Children are welcomed by happy and enthusiastic staff and settle quickly into activities. They develop warm relationships with staff who have high expectations for behaviour. Staff implement a broad and balanced curriculum, focusing on active involvement with the environment and outdoor learning, leading to good progress for all children. ## Pricing & funding Pricing on request This nursery doesn't publish its fees online.

Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Staff spoke to the inspector about how they support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Outdoor space Children relish their time outdoors, and consideration is given to all areas of learning in the garden. For example, outdoors, children develop their physical skills, using the climbing frame and skilfully using ride-on toys. Children kick and throw balls, collect water and sand and use their imaginations in the pretend ice-cream parlour. ## Parent Reviews of Wolstanton Kindergarten 5.0 (2) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjW_fy2PuAtxkRcC8ycoeEt8xEwjlFfazAFrKKfIH0mLkGt47zwD=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Richard Hackney 12 years ago Wolstanton kindergarten is an outstanding nursery, our son has been at the nursery since he was a baby, he is almost ready for school and he is very well prepared it’s a small nursery and as such he has had all the love and attention which has enabled him to grow in both ability and confidence.
