Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

Outdoor space

Children use their problem-solving skills to work out how to construct a roof and rooms for dens and houses. They develop their imagination and creative skills as they take part in activities in the outdoor 'art studio'. Children enjoy climbing on and jumping from large rocks in the garden under the close supervision of staff.

My daughter started here when she turned one. I had to put her in a nursery as I was getting back to work. As a mother I was quite apprehensive about her well being, food, sleep, etc, but I must say she's very happy and comfortable here. The team Nicole, Xeana, Courtney, Danielle are fantastic and are always warm and welcome the children with a beautiful smile. Special mention about Xeana as she is my daughters favourite. I have never seen her get attached to anybody so much. Thank you so much for your wonderful support. I feel so relieved at work to know my daughter is happy and in safe hands. :)

My 10 month old has come on so much at this setting, the team are amazing and always greet us with a smile. 10 mo goes to any of the team without hesitation and is always smiling on collection. Even though its hard that I can't keep them at home, it's a relief seeing them coming out full of smiles. I can't recommend this nursery enough, and I looked a few before settling on this one.

Absolutely superb nursery. Ellesha, Danielle, xeana and Nicole are a fantastic team they truly make the kids feel at home. My little one absolutely love nursery and I wouldn't take them anywhere else. My little one runs in without hesitation. 5*

My two children both go to YMCA Pelsall village and i couldn’t recommend them highly enough. They have been amazing with both my daughters and since going here I have noticed how confident they have become and their speaking and communication skills have excelled. My only negative about this nursery is that I wish my kids could stay here until school leaver age as I will be sorry to see them move on when the time comes xx
