The Childcare Hub is Kids Play’s dedicated setting for nature-based play, designed to help children build strong connections with the natural world. All rooms offer free-flow access to woodland gardens, allowing children to move seamlessly between indoor and outdoor environments.
The setting provides care for children aged from 6 months to 5 years and also operates a holiday club for primary school-aged children. A wide range of resources supports every stage of development, from babies exploring natural wooden toys to toddlers enjoying water and creative play. Pre-school children benefit from Forest School activities and storytelling sessions held in the Hobbit House.
To encourage responsibility and care for living things, each room is home to small animals such as fish, hamsters, stick insects, and giant land snails. The Animal Care Hub, located at the centre of the gardens, is home to rabbits, guinea pigs, and chickens, with pygmy goats joining soon.
Sustainability and environmental awareness are key focuses of the setting. Children plant and care for vegetables and herbs in the roof garden, later using their harvest to make pizzas cooked in the outdoor pizza oven.
Practitioners build on children’s natural interests, turning everyday play into meaningful learning experiences. Children also enjoy exploring the gardens, taking part in weekly music, movement, and yoga sessions, regular visits to the Animal Care Hub, and Forest School activities such as den building, tree climbing, and nature exploration.

This nursery is a life saver for me. The sheer peace of mind I have from knowing my daughter is in the safest place outside of her parents is unmatched. The staff love my daughter genuinely and she loves them just as much. She's been there since she was 6months old and is now a confident, intelligent, curious, well-rounded 4 year old. My older child also attended this setting for almost 2 years before big school and he loved it as well. The staff are extremely engaging, accommodating with regards to changes and requests whilst providing daily updates and invaluable advice for my child's development needs. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent.
Thank you for such a lovely review! We're delighted to have been part of your children's journeys and to hear how much your daughter has grown and flourished with us. Knowing you feel confident and reassured leaving your children in our care means so much to our team. Thank you for your continued trust and wonderful recommendation!

I moved my daughter here from another nursery which I was unhappy with. Childcare hub has exceeded all expectations, the staff remain the same, the meals and variety are great and the activities differ dependent on age. My daughter started at just over a year old she is now almost 3. She can talk, is potty trained, she does cooking, animal care, forest school as well as other activities. She absolutely loves the nursery and has development wise come on leaps and bounds, she has become more confident. My ask of a nursery was that my child was cared for and had fun, and they cover both bases above and beyond.

My daughter loves going to Nursery, and she has made good friends and enjoys playing with other kids. I also receive regular updates from the teachers, which tell me how my daughter has been in that day. I would recommend the nursery to anyone.

My youngest came here after a bad experience at a different nursery which left her shy, quiet and isolated. Shes been at the childcare hub since October and has come on leaps and bound!
Shes excited to go to nursery every morning with no tears or tantrums, she has started to speak more and more and even starting trying to use the potty (she's just turned 2!).
From a parent perspective they are a safe, secure nursery with excellent communication and super helpful staff.
Thank you!

My little one loves it here. He runs in every morning and sometimes doesn't want to leave at the end of the day! Staff are great with him and he's progressed so much being there. The outdoor space was a big draw for us and sometimes they spend most of the day outside which is great

My son has settled into nursery so well! He's been in 2 rooms so far and both have been fantastic, as was the settling process from one room to another. Leaving your small baby with effectively strangers is a big deal, and the process was made as easy as could be for both me and my son. Staff are supportive and understanding when raising any issues or when you need support with things that you are working on at home. Staff seem to know lots of the children as well, not just those in their room, which is lovely! My son has developed and learned so much since being here too.

My son has been coming here for 3 years now and we all love it. The staff are brilliant, proactive and caring. The activities are a great selection and my son is always telling me about something exciting from his day.
