ABOUT APPLE TREE DAY NURSERY
Apple Tree Day Nursery is a family run business. We opened our doors back in 2006! We are passionate about providing children a stimulating, safe and welcoming environment to play and learn in.
​
As a boutique nursery school your children will have the same key worker throughout the academic year until it is time for them to graduate up to the next, which is great for their development. Plus they will see the same faces every day, which is crucial for their learning within these first few years.
​
Staff are qualified, DBS checked, first aid trained, with up to date safeguarding and food hygiene training.
​
If your little ones are happy and confident on arrival that’s fantastic! If there are tears and worries we will be there to ease them gently into the day. We strive to make the children feel happy and confident all the time they are with us. We really want your children to enjoy their time with us and have lots of fun, we promote outstanding relationships including plenty of hugs when needed!
OUR ETHOS
Here at Apple Tree Day Nursery, we provide a true home from home feel due to the cosy environment we have created.
We believe that by creating a comforting environment, surrounded by engaging resources and our state-of-the-art sensory room, this will allow the children to feel confident and safe to play freely. Which optimises the child’s growth, education, and development with an objective to reach their full potential.
​
Our aim is for our children to become well-rounded, positive, and healthy people. We want them to be kind and independent, with an open heart for love and respect towards themselves and others.
​
Being a role model for the children is key and management believes that happiness trickles down. We want our staff to feel appreciated and listened to, so they come to work feeling very much part of the family (Apple) Tree. With moral high the children will pick up on this energy, making for an all round very happy setting.
We treat every child as if they were our own, every child is unique, and we make sure every child receives the best learning and care.
