Our nursery is a very special place for babies and toddlers. As a parent, it is so important to find the right setting and people to care for your child. We strive to enrich your child’s life here at Green Roots as they take this precious and important step. Parents can be reassured that we have created a “home-from-home” nursery environment that provides a gentle transition from home to nursery life. Aside from all the physical features, we know what’s important for babies – lots of cuddles.
Introducing flavours from around the world means every mealtime is an opportunity to learn, and not just about the food. Mealtimes are sociable and fun, with healthy balanced meals and creative menus that help children develop an interest in what they are eating.
View menu & nutritionWe embrace outdoor play and the design of our nursery reflects this. With our huge adventure garden and baby and toddler garden, both with large covered decking areas, our facility is second to none and an exciting place for children to be.

Our areas are divided by age groups and provide exceptional play, sleep and outdoor space. Each play area is kitted out with age appropriate furniture and resources, which are checked, maintained and sanitised regularly. We provide a variety of interesting and fun equipment for all areas of play from ICT to role play. Different spaces within each play area give your child a choice of buzzing activity or a quiet area to sit and look at books or chat with friends, if they wish.
A good sleep can really make all the difference. That’s why a sleep specialist has also helped us create the best sleep room and practices. We provide each nursery child with a blanket in a bag, which you are able to take home to wash, and infuse with your home scent. This helps during sleep time with us as your child feels that little bit more at home.

Babies take everything in, constantly watching, observing, learning, copying, repeating, responding, and communicating. Green Roots Nursery is part of their extended family at this exciting time, and we have designed the Nursery areas to be full of stimulating, tactical activities that encourage development.
The space features a carpeted cosy area and main play area (all with underfloor heating) which leads into a covered decking area with a floor level sand pit. The Explorers have their own garden where they are able to play safety in a calm and comforting environment.
We have a separate nappy change room, milk kitchen and sleep room; all good facilities to deliver best practices and care.

Toddlers are wonderful to watch and interact with. Growing in independence, their unique personalities are starting to emerge, as well as their social and self-care skills. We give our Adventurers as much variety, stimulation and support as they need.
We can but admire and support this exciting development stage with a wide range of purposeful play activities, life skills training and meal times, where children are encouraged to feed themselves. Toddlers engage in physical exploring, sensory experiences and learning to manage feelings and behaviour. All of our toddler activities provide strong roots for a life-long love of learning.
Take a tourWe understand that young children sometimes have varying meal times and sleep routines so we will discuss your child’s individual needs with you and follow the routine which best suits them. Take a look at a typical day for the nursery children below.
“Friendly staff and an excellent setting have meant we feel our little girl is getting the best care we could find her. Our little girl is thriving at the nursery and seems to be making friends and thriving on learning experiences that are provided.”

We have designed a welcoming and comforting environment at Green Roots so children can feel at home. As children go through the “into everything” phase, their interest and confidence grow, as their mobility, dexterity and language improve. We help this development by providing purpose-built, age relevant furniture, toys and resources so their learning can flourish.
From ICT to role play, exciting activities or quieter areas, we have created a variety of different options so that children can choose where and how they want to learn.
Outdoor play and fresh air are the basic principles of what makes Green Roots truly a “green” and different experience. We provide opportunities at every turn for children to go outdoors to play and explore. Our imaginatively created garden has play equipment, different surfaces and resources so there is always plenty to do.
In our Blooming Schools award winning garden, children will also grow plants and vegetables with us, providing in itself a wonderful multi-sensory experience.
Securely accessed diaries are essential for parents. We use an online system provided by Baby’s Days, which give parents access to 24/7 daily diaries and learning journeys.
You will be able to securely log on to access information and photos from your child’s day as well as being able to add comments or send messages through the system.
This easy, visible sharing of information ensures that we work in partnership with you as part of our holistic, family centered approach, which we believe provides the best care for your child.
Being online not only helps the environment, but also means that your child’s information is available to you 24/7 from anywhere in the world. The system meets all security regulations and we are registered with data control so you can be assured that your information is secure.
