Welcome to Nurture Childcare
Choosing the right environment for your toddler’s early development is a significant decision. At Nurture Childcare, located just steps from the University Hospital in Stoke-on-Trent, we provide an exclusive Montessori environment tailored for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years. Our aim is to stimulate curiosity and foster independence during these formative years.
The Voyagers Room: A Space for Adventure and Growth
Our Voyagers room is specifically designed for toddlers aged 24 to 30 months. This engaging space blends adventure and growth, offering direct access to our garden for hands-on botany activities and environmental appreciation. The room is equipped with age-appropriate materials that encourage exploration, sensory experiences, and the development of fine and gross motor skills.
Experienced and Caring Educators
Our team of dedicated educators is trained in the Montessori philosophy and understands the unique needs of toddlers. They provide personalised attention, ensuring that each child’s individual routines and preferences are respected. By fostering a trusting relationship, our staff creates a secure base from which your toddler can confidently explore their surroundings.
Holistic Development Through Practical Life Activities
In the Montessori approach, toddlers engage in practical life activities that are familiar to them, such as washing hands or setting a table. These tasks help develop motor control, coordination, concentration, independence, and a sense of order. By incorporating these activities into daily routines, we support your toddler’s holistic development.
Sensory Exploration: Building Understanding of the World
Our Voyagers room includes materials that help toddlers differentiate size, shape, colour, sound, texture, and weight. These sensory activities are designed to refine their senses and enhance their understanding of the world around them. Through hands-on exploration, toddlers develop cognitive skills and build a foundation for future learning.
Physical Development: Encouraging Movement and Coordination
Physical activity is integral to the Montessori method. For our toddlers, this includes activities that promote fine and gross motor skill development. Our safe and spacious environment allows children to move freely, encouraging them to reach developmental milestones at their own pace.
Free Swimming Lessons: Building Confidence in the Water
As part of our commitment to holistic child development, we proudly offer free swimming lessons to all children enrolled at Nurture Childcare. These lessons are designed to help toddlers develop water confidence, improve coordination, and enhance motor skills in a safe and engaging setting. With guidance from trained instructors, our swimming sessions provide valuable life skills while ensuring a fun and enjoyable experience in the water
Parent Partnership: Collaborating for Your Toddler’s Success
We believe that a strong partnership between parents and our nursery is essential for your toddler’s development. Regular communication ensures that we are aligned with your child’s routines and developmental milestones. We provide daily updates and encourage parents to share insights about their child’s progress, creating a cohesive approach to care and learning.
Flexible Scheduling to Suit Your Family’s Needs
Understanding that every family has unique scheduling requirements, we offer flexible sessions. Our nursery operates Monday to Friday from 6:45 AM to 7:15 PM, providing a range of options to accommodate your needs. Whether you require full-day care or part-time sessions, we strive to provide arrangements that work best for you and your toddler.
