First Class Nursery

Welcome to First Class Day Nursery and Preschool, set in the beautiful, quiet area of Craigiebuckler, near Aberdeen. Our setting delivers excellent care and education to children aged 3 months to 5 years.

Enriching Rooms for Every Age

Your little one will love spending their days in our bright classrooms, which have been designed to support the children's development at every stage with a range of stimulating resources and activities.

To ensure your child is ready to start school, preschoolers take part in our Ready for School programme, which brings structure into maths, reading, writing and other essential skills they need to get ready for their next big adventure.

Getting Ready for Their Next Steps

To ensure your little learner is confident to start school, preschoolers take part in our Ready for School programme, which structures and brings focus to maths, reading, writing and other essential skills they need to get ready for school.

All children also enjoy Boogie Mites music sessions where they can learn about the world through music and song.

You can stay updated with your child's day through our Bright Horizons Family app.
