From the The Lindfield Nursery
The nursery was purchased by Claire Hardacre and Nichola Hill in 2020. After eleven years of employment at the nursery, Ella Gwynn, the SENCO, and Claire now co-manage the facility. We work together to place the child at the centre of everything we do.
Our pleasant and amiable staff adheres to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). They are all adept at embracing the kids' passions and interests so they can playfully learn. As the kids explore, create, and form friendships, the days are full of joy and laughter.
Regardless of session times, we encourage a kid-led environment to provide every child the chance to get the most out of their experiences. We don't have established events that happen on certain days. We are proud of the bonds we establish with families. We make sure the kids in our care are content, which makes their parents happy as well.
Call us or fill out our contact form if you have any questions or would want to schedule a settling session.
