Priesthills Nursery

About Us

The Priesthills nursery has been established since 1984 and has been designed to care for children from birth to five years.

We enjoy an excellent local reputation and take a whole team approach in striving to provide ‘the best’ for the children in our care.

The general ethos of the nursery is a happy friendly environment where each child is encouraged to achieve his or her own potential and where each child is valued as an individual by both adults and their peers.

We believe that the learning experiences of children in this age group should be in a safe homely and welcoming environment and should, above all be fun.

We also believe that the Childs’ welfare and development are paramount and our policies are written to support this.

To ensure that children and Staff are valued as individuals and are encouraged to treat each other with respect.

To endeavour to meet the special and exceptional needs of individual children and to liase with other professionals.
