Days Filled With Fun and Learning at Our Guildford Nursery

Your little one will flourish in our newly refurbished Guildford Day Nursery and Preschool. Our nursery provides nurturing childcare for children aged 3 months to 5 years for local families, as well as the staff, faculty, and students at the University of Surrey, where the nursery is located.

Specialist Rooms

Your child will love spending days filled with fun, learning, and friends at our nursery in Guildford. We have four exciting rooms carefully designed to support the development for each of our age groups.

As well as our four beautiful and spacious rooms, your little one will also benefit from using our specialist rooms. These include a calming sensory room, a sleeping room for peaceful naps, an art studio for embracing creativity, and a childrens kitchen for recipe making and learning about healthy foods.

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

A Bright Beginning for Every Child

Your little one will get the best start to their schooling life through our enriching and wellbeing-focused Bright Beginnings Curriculum, designed by our own Early Years specialists.

Building on the foundations of the governments EYFS curriculum, Bright Beginnings combines a wide range of activities to nurture and develop the skills your child needs to flourish and reach their full potential. This holistic yet personal approach supports each childs wellbeing, development, and progress – whether thats moving rooms or preparing them for school.

Getting Ready for Their Next Steps

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

Community Building

Throughout the year, you can enjoy attending various fun events at the nursery, where we encourage our practitioners, parents and children to mingle. Join us for Easter egg hunts, summer picnics, Christmas lunches, and even visits from Santa. We also host several stay-and-play sessions, where parents and carers can enjoy a day at the nursery firsthand.

Fee Calculator

Our calculator enables you to estimate your basic fees BEFORE childcare funding is applied. We’ve taken this approach as funding is dependent on your own very individual situation, how old your child is, where you live, whether you’re working and so on.

Our comprehensive funding guides provide guidance on what funding you’re likely to be eligible for, we can send this to you after you’ve estimated your fees.

When you visit us, we can also help you understand your options and work out what your net fees will be after any childcare funding is taken into account.

Estimate your fees

Oops! We appear to be having a few technical challenges! Our team is working hard to get our fee calculator back up and running soon as soon as possible. Thanks for bearing with us.

In the meantime, if you need some answers or to book a nursery visit, then please call us on 01483617710, our friendly team is here to help.
