Situated a short distance from the centre of Cambridge, The Old Station Nursery Granta Park offers the perfect setting for parents commuting to the city as well as the surrounding areas. The nursery offers exceptional care, enriched by unique learning opportunities for your child, such as child-friendly cooking, language and organic growing classes. These classes help to equip children with valuable skills and deeper knowledge of the cooking process, difference cultures, the environment and sustainable living.
In the organic-centred nursery, a lively curriculum inspires curiosity, sparks imagination, and cultivates overall wellness. Children eagerly participate in plant nurturing, produce harvesting, and culinary exploration, acquiring knowledge about plant growth, diverse fruits, and cooking methods. The nursery also proudly offers a cookery enhancement, featuring uniquely crafted cooking and baking utensils designed with children's safety and ease of use in mind.
Purposefully designed, the nursery offers four rooms that have been curated for different ages and stages of development. In each of the large and airy rooms, children can explore a range of resources and equipment chosen specifically for them. Each room also benefits from access to a separate garden space. With laid Astroturf and a range of resources, from a mud kitchen to a climbing frame, children are free to safely explore and enjoy the outdoors.
Granta Park focuses on the learning of Languages via Baby Sing and Sign classes, Spanish language lessons and interactive multilingual books. This is embedded into an overall engaging curriculum. Children have access to a range of high-quality and engaging texts and children’s stories from Polylino.
The Old Station Nursery Granta Park has partnered with the local coffee shop on the business park to offer new parents a complimentary coffee while their child begins their journey.

A wonderful setting with friendly and caring staff who care just as much about the parents as they do the children. Since starting at the nursery I have watched my daughter grow in confidence and curiosity about herself and the world around her and within her room, she has found her own little community of familiar faces. The activities that are set up by the staff are relevant to the children's interests and also reflect their surrounds, from displays about the seasons and different types of transport to the members of everyone's families and the sort of places that we all live. I love the fact that my daughter is always pleased to see me but never in that much of a rush to go home as she is having such a wonderful day.

My children have been attending Granta Park Nursery for the last 3 years. Both children are happy and settled there. They have an excellent rapport with the staff and always return home speaking of all the fun they have had through the day. The staff are very good at keeping us informed of their progress and are incredibly proactive in their approach to learning.
Overall we couldn't be happier with the care and support given to our children and would be happy to recommend the nursery.

We have been so impressed with Granta Park Nursery since our child joined a year ago. She is so happy there, has a lovely bond with the staff and enjoys the wonderful purpose-built facilities.
I wouldn't hesitate in recommending the nursery to others.

My son (4) has just left Granta Park after 2 years at the nursery to go to school. He has learnt a lot and is well prepared for school life. The Monstessori approach teaches the children independence, decision making and logical thinking. He misses the friendly and supportive staff and the activities and regularly asks to go back to visit.
I would recommend the nursery to prospective parents.

They have helped to support her development in her favourite activities and the staff in her room especially keep us well informed of her daily activities and the staff in her room especially keep us well informed of her daily activities. It was really reassuring when there was a short biting phase as we were a bit shocked but the staff helped us to understand it better. Thank you!

Overall the nursery is ok. The carers are good. The facilities are not the greatest but acceptable. The management, mainly the manager of this nursery is rude and not very helpful at all. She does not understand the needs of a new starter and their parents. She comes across unhelpful and not caring. The assistant manager in the contrary is lovely and cares about the well being of the kids/babies and their parents.
