The Little Lane Nursery has made its home in a purpose built Norwegian style log cabin. Constructed in 2011 for the purpose of a preschool, so careful thought has gone in to the layout and design. The look and feel of log cabin really appeals to children, and is perfect for encouraging learning as well as good behaviour.
In 2019, we further expanded our offering, to include childcare from the age of 6 weeks. Our new under 2 baby suite is located across the garden from the preschool building within a converted school. The beautiful high ceiling, make it a beautiful space for our youngest members.
In 2021, we expanded yet again with a dedicated space for our preschool aged children, in the form of a modular pod and a quirky shepherds hut as a role play area!
Our open plan rooms combine opportunities to explore as well as quiet cosy times with their key person.
Throughout the day children are provided with a wide range of opportunities to explore different areas including a role play, creative play, water, sand and sensory play .
Understanding what each individual child enjoys, allows our dedicated staff to adapt play and learning opportunities regularly, both indoors an outdoors. With each child assigned a 'Key Worker' from day one, children are able to form solid relationships and build new key skills, with parents/carers safe in the knowledge that their child's individual needs are continually monitored and met.
