Teddies Beckenham

Day Care Nursery in Kent

Teddies Nursery in Beckenham, Kent, is within a quiet residential area, conveniently located just a short walk from Elmers End train and tram station and local bus routes.

"Genuinely interested in our Childs happiness & welfare & I would be happy to recommend Teddies Beckenham to other friends & family members." Parent, Teddies Beckenham

Our day care nursery has two adjoining rooms for each age group, which enables us to care for our children in the smaller group sizes that we know they benefit from. Our Little Learners Unit takes part in an assortment of activities including messy play, music and movement, singing, and sand and water.

“Each key person displays a sound understanding of the individual needs of the children for whom they have a special responsibility. Suitable observations are undertaken and children's next learning steps planned. The nursery has interesting and informative 'learning journeys' on each child. These are shared regularly with the parents and children. Parents enjoy reading the learning journeys and receive regular useful newsletters via e-mail or hard copy; this demonstrates the positive partnerships staff enjoy with parents” Ofsted 2010

Teddies Beckenham also has a Learning Centre unit where older children are introduced into subjects such as: reading, writing, maths, science and IT. We’ve found that this is an excellent way to boost our children’s confidence and independence, in preparation for the move up to school!

"I am entirely happy with the level of learning that goes on. The children are there for long days, and I would not want the environment to be non-stop learning - the level is appropriate" Parent, Teddies Beckenham

Our nursery has a large, attractive outdoor play space with different sections for different age groups, so all children can access the garden at the same time, and play safely with friends their own age.

At Teddies Beckenham, we particularly encourage all of our babies and children to take part in activities and games together – this helps social activity and development and gives our nursery a warm ‘family atmosphere’. We also like to go on regular outings to local shops and parks to learn about the community and the larger world around us – there’s never a dull moment for children at Teddies Beckenham!

“My child is happy and confident, and, having seen her in a range of pre-school environments, I feel confident that Teddies responds to her needs and manages her behaviour (and other children's) in the most appropriate way to promote a positive learning experience. I wouldn't be able to leave her if this wasn't the case; I am very happy with Teddies. I'd also add that the fact food is prepared on site is another reason that I rate Teddies so highly” Parent, Teddies Beckenham

Our nursery fees include branded nappies, nappy cream, bottles and, should a parent wish, a formula baby milk of your choice.
