The Nursery

Daisy Chain Childcare Nurseries are designed with children in mind. Our buildings provide a bright, spacious yet warm and welcoming environment where your child can flourish and blossom. Our new Lofthouse nursery is situated within the grounds of Rodillian High School and was opened in Sept 2008. This state of the art, purpose built Childcare facility provides lots of opportunities for children to play and learn in a wonderful environment.

We cater for children aged from 3 months to 5 years in our day nurseries.

We pride ourselves on providing high quality day care to the local communities in which we are situated. Parents can leave their children in our care, safe in the knowledge that their child will enjoy a fun day within a stimulating environment. Our curriculum follows the six steps of learning as set by OFSTED which is part of the Early Years Foundation Stage for children under three. Each child has a development portfolio which illustrates how they are growing and developing. Parental contribution and involvement in nursery life is always actively encouraged.

Our curriculum includes music and French lessons and gardening Sessions for 3 and 4 year olds. Additionally we have a structured programme of physical activities to introduce excercise to children at an early age - these include Bend & Stretch, dance sessions and Yoga Bugs. French and music sessions are provided by qualified external teachers and are available at no extra cost to children attending Daisy Chain. Be assured that all learning is done through play and is tailored to capture young imaginations.

Security of the children has been one of our main considerations and only parents and permitted visitors have access to the children’s areas. We have the security of intruder alarms and an electronic entry system. Under no circumstances will a child be allowed to leave the nursery with anyone unknown to staff unless previously arranged by a parent/guardian.

Outdoor Play

Our nursery has its own secure outdoor play area full of activities and things to do. Our outdoor play has been selected to offer little ones challenge, fun and entertainment with equipment that is just their size. As well as climbing equipment we have hard surface areas for bikes, hoops, scooters, bats & balls. Our cheery, colourful equipment not only guarantees fun but also promotes physical development.

Our Loft house nursery has a “magic garden” which develops all the senses ie sight sounds and smell.
