Early Years Apprenticeship - Woodley Gardens Day Nursery

The Nursery is situated in a quiet residential area of Woodley. We occupy a two story Tudor building with a large secure outside space to the rear. The children can ride bikes, play in the sand pit and enjoy a range of different activities on the private and spacious artificial grassed lawn. The children also receive weekly sports coaching and a music and movement session. Our Nursery has a defibrillator in place. We believe this is such an important piece of kit to have to hand in the case of a medical emergency, all staff have received training in how to use a defibrillator.
