Our 26-place nursery provides a friendly, inspiring and welcoming early years setting for children aged 3 years ad over. By accessing our before and after school club, care can be provided for your child from 7.45am until 6pm.
Please look at out video and enjoy the pictures of our nurturing environment.
We know the importance of feeling the environment for yourself in person, so please do get in touch if you would like to hear more, speak to Mrs McMaster or to have a tour. Make sure you allow enough time as no-one ever wants to leave our nursery once there! Details of our structure, fees and charges together with how to apply can also be found on our website.

The Nursery classroom offers a ‘home away from home’ environment where the relationships between staff and children and with staff and parents unpin everything we do. You will see that our parents agree:
"Nursery at St Chad's is a truly special place. Mrs McMaster and the team have created an atmosphere that's hard to put into words, but as soon as you step inside, you can 'feel' it as much as you can see it. Children are supported to feel safe and shine in equal measure. They flourish, while having lots of fun too. My children are so different in character, confidence, and core skills, yet I watched both of them develop and grow so much during their time at nursery. The biggest compliment I can give is that there is genuinely no place I'd rather my 'babies' have spent those pre-school years. The communication is exemplary, the pastoral and personalised care is comforting, and the atmosphere is joyful. The only downside was that I couldn't be scooped up with a hug and spend the day there myself!". Parent Testimonial 2023
“St Chad’s Nursery provided the perfect start to our boys’ school life. You only have to walk in the door to know what a lovely environment the staff provide for the children. The staff are always warm and welcoming and nothing seems too much trouble. They offer excellent indoor and outdoor provision which the children can select where they spend their time. The indoor provision always looks varied and interesting, and the outdoor space is fantastic. Our boys loved their time in nursery and the transition up to the main school went very smoothly thanks to the great start to their school life and the preparation for school in nursery.” Parent Testimonial 2023
“Warm, engaging, dedicated staff who play with the children… strong links between Reception and Nursery… great communication, great outdoor provision. I honestly couldn’t praise Nursery high enough. You are brilliant! All of my 3 children have been really happy there and prepared well for school, socially and in terms of learning. Keep up the great work! Thank you so much for all you do!” Parent Testimonial January 2024
