About Us

We run a cherished community asset and a haven for children from six months to five years old. We are more than just a nursery; we are a registered charity dedicated to providing year-round care and term-time only places, ensuring that every child experiences the joy of early learning in a nurturing and stimulating environment.

Join Our Vibrant Community

East Harptree Nursery is more than just a childcare provider; we are a community that embraces diversity and cherishes every child’s potential. We invite you to be a part of this enriching journey, where your child will not only receive quality education but also create precious memories that will last a lifetime.

Our Beautiful Setting

In September 2022, our nursery found a new home within the East Harptree Village Hall complex. This newly renovated space was meticulously designed with children in mind, featuring underfloor heating and bright, child-accessible areas. Within this setting, we have three distinct rooms catering to different age groups: Babies (under 2s), Toddlers (2/3 year olds), and Pre School (3/4 year olds). Our outdoor play area, exclusively for the children, includes a covered space, ensuring year-round usability. Additionally, our Pre School children have the opportunity to explore the wonders of nature during our Friday morning Forest School sessions in the picturesque grounds of Harptree Court.

Our Vision: Equality of Opportunity

At East Harptree Nursery, we believe in equal opportunities for all children and their families. Our approach is built on trust and interaction, valuing each child as a unique individual. We provide a rich and exciting environment, both indoors and outdoors, where active learning through play is promoted. We wholeheartedly support the four themes of the Early Years Foundation Stage: A Unique Child, Positive Relationships, Enabling Environments, and Learning and Development. Our teaching methods revolve around playing and exploring, active learning, and creating and thinking critically.
