Wavendon Day Nursery and Preschool

"We love Bright Horizons at Wavendon! The staff are so great - interested, very caring and always make our child comfortable (even when we have difficult mornings saying goodbye for the day). They always support our daughter in her milestones (potty training, language development, her being bilingual)."

Learn, Discover, and Have Fun at Our Nursery in Milton Keynes

Welcome to Wavendon Day Nursery and Preschool. Set in a beautifully converted bungalow surrounded by wonderful gardens, our qualified and enthusiastic staff are dedicated to the care and early education of all children aged 3 months to 5 years.

Enriching Rooms

We have four individual rooms which are fully equipped with age-appropriate resources specific to helping your child learn and develop at each age and stage. The rooms are well-equipped with community playthings furniture and toys and the learning environments are brought to life by our creative role-play areas.

Toddlers love the large wooden castle and slide in their room, which helps promote physical development while having a lot of fun. And in our preschool rooms, we use our amazing interactive whiteboard to teach lessons and key skills to help prepare your child for school.

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 government’s 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 child’s wellbeing, development, and progress – whether that’s moving rooms or preparing them for school.

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 01908049036, our friendly team is here to help.
