Welcome to Windmill Day Nursery!

We invite you to explore the wonderful spaces where your child will learn and grow. From our cosy baby room to our stimulating preschool, each area is a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment designed to support your child's development at every stage.

We believe in providing every child with the tools to learn, grow, and flourish, both inside our well-equipped rooms and in our beautiful, expansive garden.

    Monkey Room

    3 months - 15/18 months

    The Monkey rooms is home to our youngest children. Monkeys has space for up to 6 babies aged 3 months-2 years old.

    We offer individual care to every child, and believe that by spending time getting to know your routine at home, we can make this first transition into nursery easy for both you and your child.

    Each child has a ‘What I have done today’ sheet which is completed by the team on a daily basis, and will give you a complete overview of your child's day.

    These rooms will provide your child with a variety of stimulating toys and activities, and most importantly just as much love and care.

  • Classroom with small tables and chairs, a colorful clock rug, and a decorated window area with hanging paper raindrops.

    Panda Room

    15/18 months - 2 ¾ years

    The Panda Room is home to our toddlers aged 2–3 years. This room can accommodate up to 15 children and offers a nurturing, playful environment where toddlers are supported through the next exciting stage of their development.

    Our dedicated team continues to provide care that is responsive to each child’s individual needs, recognising that routines are still developing and changing. We build on the foundations of secure attachments, encouraging children to express themselves through a range of sensory experiences, creative play, singing, story sharing and lots of laughter.

    The Panda Room is full of opportunities for hands-on exploration, language development, and growing independence, helping each child to feel confident, curious and valued as they prepare for their next steps.

    Giraffe Room

    2 ¾ - 5 years

    Giraffe room is home to children aged 2 ¾-5 years. Giraffes has space for 33 children. These rooms are designed for children to explore, to discover new experiences, to develop independent skills and to build relationships with each other and with adults.

    Our children are always active, and they have the freedom to choose which room they would prefer to play in (Giraffe room, Creative room and Quiet room), as each room offers a different experience.

    The children have access to a vast selection of activities and resources that are ordinarily available to self-choose.

    Our Garden

    We are very fortunate to have access to a large, secure outdoor play area where the children can fully explore and enjoy the outdoors. The garden is thoughtfully designed with a variety of zones to inspire different types of play and learning. Children can dig and build in the large sandpit, create mud pies in the mud kitchen, and develop their physical skills on the bikes and trikes in our dedicated cycling area. There’s also a separate baby garden, allowing our youngest children to safely explore at their own pace.

    A creative area offers opportunities for outdoor art and messy play, while the role play area sparks imagination and social interaction. Our older children are able to free-flow between the indoor and outdoor environments throughout the day, promoting independence and choice in their play. We access the garden daily, in all weathers, with waterproofs and umbrellas available to make sure outdoor play remains a part of every child’s day. Shaded, purpose-built areas provide a lovely space for afternoon picnic teas on sunny days.
