Watch Your Child Flourish at Our Nurturing Nursery in Ely

Welcome to Ely Day Nursery and Preschool, situated on the grounds of Cambridge Business Park. Our modern, purpose-built nursery is the perfect setting for little ones aged 3 months to 5 years to learn, flourish, have fun and make friends.

Bright and Engaging Classrooms

Caterpillar is our fun and cosy baby room, specially designed with your babys comfort and development in mind. There is lots to explore in this room, from sensory toys to arts and crafts, as well as a separate milk kitchen and nappy changing area.

2 to 3-year-olds love their colourful Butterfly room, which has different areas to spark their imagination, including an indoor slide and a lovely book corner.

Penguins is our second 2 to 3s room. This lovely room benefits from freeflow access to the garden, allowing the children to choose whether to play inside or out. We also have pet giant African snails which the children love taking care of.

Preschoolers have so much fun in their Ladybird room, where they learn the key skills they need to feel confident and prepared to start school.
