Chelmsford Day Nursery & Preschool51 Centenary Way, Springfield. Chelmsford, Essex, CM1 6AU
Watch your little one flourish and thrive at Chelmsford

With five spacious rooms dedicated to ages 3 months to 5 years, your little one will adore spending their days at our warm and enriching Chelmsford Day Nursery and Preschool.

The Best Resources for All Ages

We understand every child is unique and has their own way of doing things. This is why we'll work with you to make sure your child's individual needs are always met.

Little nappers will find the comfort and rest they need in their own dedicated sleep space, where we'll ensure their nap routine is the same as they have at home.

In our toddler room at Chelmsford Day Nursery and Preschool, your child's curious mind will be encouraged to follow their own interests and independence. Your little one will love having freeflow access to our bright and exciting garden, which they can explore at their own pace.

A Bright Beginning for Every Child

Designed by our Early Years specialists, your little one will get the best start to their schooling life through our enriching and wellbeing-focused Bright Beginnings Curriculum.

Building on the foundations of the government's EYFS curriculum, it combines a wide range of activities to nurture and develop the skills your child needs to flourish and reach their full potential. This holistic yet personal approach supports each child's development and progress - whether that's moving rooms or preparing them for school.

Taught by a qualified preschool teacher, your child will develop new key skills that will help them thrive in school and beyond.

Exciting Outdoor Spaces to Discover

Your child will love all there is to discover in our large outdoor gardens. These fun spaces have been designed for each age group and are used to provide opportunities to extend your little one's learning and development. At our nursery in Chelmsford, children aged 3-5 have their own outdoor classroom.

Freshly-Prepared Meals Made Onsite

Little foodies will be in heaven as they tuck into freshly-prepared meals and snacks, all lovingly made by our onsite chef. And to give you a break on those hectic mornings, essentials such as meals, nappies, wipes, nappy cream, sun cream, and formula are included in your fees.

A Convenient and Secure Location

Located in Chelmsford two miles from the town centre and close to Chelmsford station, our nursery is ideal for commuting parents. To make the nursery run as easy as possible, we have onsite parking and a buggy park.
