Daisy Chain Childcare at Adel is a bright and friendly nursery situated in a quiet leafy setting. The purpose-built, single-story nursery is designed to cater for young children’s needs with features that actively encourage child development. Because we believe children learn best through play, all resources are freely available at child height, encouraging independent play and self-choice.
Varied activities include
There are four childcare rooms; two Baby Units (Pixies & Imps), an over 2’s Room (Sprites) and a pre-school room (Elves).
Each childcare room offers direct access to a safe outdoor play areas which includes:
The nursery also enjoys access to the school’s nature garden and use of the school playing field for special events such as Sport’s Day.
Our well qualified staff team all share a love of working with children and follow a programme of continuous personal development. Each child has a dedicated key person who provides daily feedback on children’s progress and development.
Our on-site cook provides delicious, nutritious meals from freshly prepared local produce with a 5 weekly rolling menu. We are proud holders of a 5 Star Hygiene rating for Environmental Health.
The nursery is situated within school grounds allowing us to offer a “wrap around” service for the school’s nursery in addition to the full daycare service for the wider community.

Nursery Manager
My name is Samantha Neal, and I am the manager at Daisy Chain Childcare in Adel.
I started working with Daisy Chain in 2008 after I completed my Level 3 Childcare Qualification at college; Daisy Chain was my first employment as a casual member of staff, which soon turned to permanent after 2 weeks. From then, I worked my way up to being a room leader, working in all the childcare rooms over the years, advancing my knowledge as well as becoming a deputy and covering maternity leave, During this time, I also completed my Level 3 in Leadership & Management. I also have a child who attends the setting and loves exploring and engaging in the amazing activities provided by the staff.
