Nursery Days is fully and beautifully refurbished and now has large natural playgrounds.
It is based within the grounds of The Old School in the rural village of Upchurch close to Rainham, Sittingbourne and Gillingham. Nursery Days offers childcare for 3 months to 5 years.
Individuality is celebrated, and through observations and discussions with parents and carers, is something that really ensures children's time at Nursery Days is based on their interests and personal needs.
A highly qualified, experienced and skilled staff team, include qualified teachers who are dedicated to continually enabling children to feel confident and secure at Nursery Days.
Indoors, Nursery days is a well designed homely environment that promotes emotional well-being, togetherness and friendship. Here children can feel comfortable to snuggle down or explore with confidence, and will always be at home.
Outdoors, Nursery Days experimental playground is an extra asset to the nursery. The children also get to experience a natural learning adventure at daily forest school (with a nursery forest school leader) at their private orchard which is local to the nursery.
Nursery Days has a highly qualified and experienced cook to prepare fresh and healthy food daily for the children. The heartwarming home-cooked lunches, snacks, breakfast and tea use locally farmed fruit and vegetables.
They offer a huge range of experiences every day for the children at Nursery Days. These include baby yoga and massage, professionally lead sports class, cooking and gardening club, woodwork classes, musical and movement sessions and much more.

Both of my children have attended Nursery Days since the age of 10 months (currently 3/4 years) and we cannot talk highly enough of our experience. The staff in all 3 classes have been amazing with the kids and equally helpful and approachable for us parents. A major selling point for us was the access to outdoor spaces/activities and our children have absolutely loved it. Come rain or shine they spend at least half the day outside. In summary, our children have skipped into nursery every day and we have always felt great comfort that they are safe, happy and learning. Valuable skills!

Thank you, we know how much the children adore nursery and it's been amazing to care for both of them. We know how much they enjoy the orchard and all the outings on the minibus.

My daughter has been attending nursery days for 7 months now. The care, love, kindness and fun she has been shown and given is incredible. Her keyworker always goes above and beyond to support her. The bond they have is indescribable. I am so grateful for all she does for my daughter.

Very friendly staff. Our children love this nursery. They do a wide range of activities and are always up to something. They come home messy, smiling and tired lol. Rain, snow or sun they go outside and enjoy what nature has to offer.

My children absolutely loved and love going to Nursery days. The days are jam packed with so much fun and learning. I really like that they get to go out on local trips on the mini bus, they also spend a lot of time at the orchard where they play, sing and interact with the animals. The children are excited to go to nursery and at the end of the day they have lots of stories to tell me. I wouldn't send my children anywhere else, the staff are all amazing, caring, supportive and friendly. This is the best nursery by far!

I've used Nursery Days for 2 and a half years and have recommended it to all my family and friends. The team is amazing, always so helpful, and caring and the children love the nursery. They go above and beyond and wouldn't send my children anywhere else. If they run a school, I wouldn't think twice about sending them to the school. We see reviews prior to coming and can see why it's a five-star nursery.

My daughter attends this nursery and I couldn't recommend it enough. Her confidence and social skills have grown massively which is due to the caring supportive staff taking time to understand and know the children individually. The opportunities are endless as the nursery has an orchard for forest school and also a minibus to really spend quality time with the children.
