Welcome to Rainbows Day Nursery

When you visit Rainbows Day Nursery, the first thing you are likely to notice is our welcoming, friendly team and homely environment. This is the unique quality our parents comment on most, and something we actively nurture. We want every child to feel safe, loved, valued and celebrated for who they are, developing a strong sense of belonging from the moment they join us.

From babies through to pre-school, we provide a warm, nurturing environment where children can grow, develop and explore with confidence, knowing there is always a familiar, trusted adult close by to offer comfort, encouragement and support when they need it.

Our indoor spaces have been thoughtfully designed around the way young children naturally play, learn and explore. With bright, welcoming rooms, carefully chosen resources and exciting opportunities for play, alongside accessible outdoor spaces for all age groups, we provide a safe and stimulating environment where children always come first.

We are fortunate to be situated within a beautiful park, giving us access to woodland, the local play park and our own garden. Nature is at the heart of Rainbows, and our surroundings provide wonderful opportunities for everyday adventures, outdoor learning, gardening, investigation and discovery. We are also within walking distance of the local train station, bus stops and primary school, with parking available in front of the setting for drop-off and collection.

At Rainbows, we believe childhood should be filled with joy, curiosity and a connection with nature. These values shape everything we do and the experiences we offer.

Joy – We want children to experience joy in their childhood and joy in learning. We give them the time, space and freedom to play, explore, create, laugh, wonder and follow their own interests, building happy memories and a positive attitude towards learning.

Curiosity – We encourage children to question, investigate and discover the world around them. We listen to their ideas, follow their fascinations and provide opportunities to experiment, problem-solve, develop independence and make discoveries for themselves.

Nature – Our natural surroundings are an important part of everyday life at Rainbows. Through our woodland adventures, outdoor play, gardening and exploration, children develop a meaningful connection with the natural world, learning to appreciate and care for the environment around them.

Above all, we have huge ambitions for every child. We want them to leave Rainbows with confidence, kindness, resilience, independence and a lifelong love of learning, carrying happy memories of a childhood where they felt they truly belonged.

We nurture every child, celebrate every individual and give children the freedom to thrive through joy, curiosity and nature.
