Barnes Day Nursery and Preschool

A spacious and inspiring nursery in Barnes

Families love our purpose-built nursery rooms with age-appropriate play and learning resources to suit children from 3 months to 5 years.

Enhanced Learning

Rated 'Good' by Ofsted, Barnes Day Nursery and Preschool are committed to building on the foundations of the government's EYFS curriculum through our Bright Beginnings Curriculum.

Designed by our Early Years specialists, the enriching curriculum focuses on children's wellbeing as the foundation to successful learning.

Your child is nurtured and supported through their development and will flourish and reach their full potential by participating in a combination of activities that provide the best start to their education.

Designed for Every Age

Our baby room is the perfect, safe environment for your little one to explore and enjoy our sensory toys. We also have a separate sleep room, milk kitchen and nappy-changing room

The toddler room offers safe adventures where your child can practice newly developed physical skills and build independence. Painting, messy play, construction and loose parts play are just some of the daily activities they'll enjoy.

Your preschooler will develop new interests in our preschool room through our Ready For School Programme, where early maths and literacy skills are enjoyed along with other Growing Enhancements. Your Creative Cook, Growing Artist or Growing Scientist can develop a healthy and happy approach to learning.

Our library is available for every age and stage, and our very own children's kitchen will spark their interest in preparing, cooking and eating healthy food.

Follow their progress via the Bright Horizons Family app to see updates including photos and videos.

Outdoor Adventures

Children love our two large gardens with trees and covered seating areas, conveniently separated for age-appropriate play. Our baby garden and toddler garden are suited to each developmental stage and provide a safe space for your little one to explore.

For your preschooler, our designated area includes a little bridge and secure zone for tricycles and balance toys.
