Providing quality care since 1970, Jack and Jill Day Nursery is open year-round, welcoming children aged from 3 months to 5 years. Jack and Jill is a happy and caring nursery where children can flourish. By providing a positive environment with lots of engaging activities, Jack and Jill ensures that every child is happy, confident and bursting with enthusiasm; ready to take on the challenges of school life and a whole new world of learning.
Jack and Jill is located in the centre of Corfe Mullen village, just 1 mile from Broadstone and 3 miles from Wimborne and Upton. There is a carpark for drop-off and collection. The nursery was recently refurbished and is light, bright and spacious. The nursery has dedicated rooms for babies, toddlers and pre-school children.
Outdoor play and learning are particularly important at Jack and Jill and the children go outside as much as possible, whatever the weather! There are 2 gardens, playgrounds and all the children have free flow access outdoors. Both gardens offer a fantastic range of activities including digging and planting, mud kitchen, water station, sand pits, story corner, and lots of physical activities to help with their co-ordination and development such as balancing beams, trikes and ball games.
SEN is extremely important at Jack and Jill and the staff and SENCO are highly trained in recognising and supporting many different emerging needs. Each child is treated as an individual and will have a personal plan ensuring their unique needs are being met and allowing them to develop at their own pace.
The staff at Jack and Jill are caring, passionate and well-qualified (including paediatric first aid for all staff members). They'd love to invite you to come and look around!

About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 51 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 51 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.4 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

Our oldest son went to Jack and Jill before starting school and he absolutely loved it there- so we had our youngest sons name down before he was even born! The staff are all so friendly and nurturing, they all love your kids as if they were their own, and I love knowing that if they are having a bad day or feeling tired, they can get all the love and comfort they need from everyone that works there. The staff have so many different activities planned that no day is ever the same, I don't know how they manage to think of them all. They always plan lovely craft activities for important days such as mothers day and the kids come home with a little package they have made themselves, which is so much more special than shop bought presents. I recommend Jack and Jill to anyone who is looking for childcare in the area
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It has been a real pleasure having the boys here
Jack & Jill have been part of my children's lives for over 6 years now. They have nurtured my girls from 8months old and I cannot express how safe I feel leaving my children in their care. It's always a daunting process leaving your children, however I never had any doubts when leaving the girls....
The staff are warm and welcoming, a home from home vibe is what they have created for us. The setting is perfect, with amble facilities for the children to use and explore.
Thank you Jack & Jill team for being so fabulous.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It has been so much fun having your girls here!
The staff are fantastic with the all the kids. My boys are happy when going in, sometimes not even looking back. They are also so excited to tell us about their day once we collect them.

The staff are fantastic with the all the kids. My boys are happy when going in, sometimes not even looking back. They are also so excited to tell us about their day once we collect them.
Before finding Jack and Jill's my eldest tried two other nurseries and just didn't settle. Jack and Jill is definitely the best in ours and our sons opinion and we would recommend it to everyone

Jack and Jill's is such an amazing nursery and we can't thank the team enough for all the help and support they have given our little one. Due to our little one having some complex health conditions, I was always anxious about sending him off to nursery but the team put my mind at rest from the moment we met them all. Kind, caring, approachable people who have such a passion for their jobs! We also had some issues with speech when starting but with the teams support my little one has finally found his voice and they provided us with great activities to aid us to support him at home, along with constant communication with what he had been up to but also how well he was developing. The atmosphere is always so fun and friendly at all drop offs and pick ups and quite often I'm jealous of all the fun activities my little one gets up to (especially the ducklings)! The team form such strong bonds with all the children, it's like a second home. My little one is always excited to go to nursery!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We have loved watching your son grow

We cannot recommend Jack and Jill's enough, all the staff are so caring and nurturing and our little girls adores it there. The activities they do everyday are amazing, this week they created a lemonade stand and the children made lemonade. Every week it's something different and the children genuinely have so much fun but always know where to go when they need a cuddle too. Our Daugther has come on so much during her time here and we'll be sad to say goodbye in August.
Thank you for your lovely review. It has been such a pleasure to have your girls here.

My eldest son has been there for nearly 4 years and is about to go to school- when I asked what he thinks about going to school- he said he's worried he will miss nursery! Which is a testament to how lovely a place it is! Thank you all
Thank you so much for your amazing review. We really enjoy having your boys here
Amazing staff, which take pride in their job. Helping massively with the children's confidence and well-being. Best nursery, made our children thrive.

I chose Jack & Jill's as the nursery was close to my place of work. I was so lucky to find such a lovely nursery for my daughter. The staff are all brilliant in their own way and truly enjoy being around the children. My daughter has been here for almost 3 years and has enjoyed it. They have set her up so well for school too. The managers are brilliant with communication and all the staff is friendly, approachable and you can tell the kids love them. I will always recommend Jack & Jill's.
Thank you for your lovely review. It has been so much fun watching your daughter grow and I'm sure she is going to have an amazing time at school.

Both of my children attend Jack and Jill’s and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone. They are so well loved and looked after. They always leave with a smile on their face and have always done something exciting. We moved away from the area but make the effort to commute there because we couldn’t imagine them being anywhere near as happy anywhere else.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We really appreciate it.

My daughter has been attending Jack and Jill for over a year and she settled very quickly with all of the staff who look after her. Staff are hardworking and friendly and give updates on her day at the door and always good, efficient communication using their online tool. They have got to know her really well and she looks forward to going. They open from 8 am which helps with our work routine and easy drop/off collection in their car park. It’s helpful that they also provide snacks in between meals as she loves to get food. She also enjoys the messy play and craft activities as well as exploring their large outdoor spaces, several garden areas etc. The nursery also runs community-type events such as clothes swap and book library which is a nice touch.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We really appreciate it.

We love how the staff are so engaging with the children and genuinely enjoy spending time with them
The facilities are well maintained.
They encourage a range of activities with the children, and I enjoy getting regular updates on what the children have been up to. I also like how the children in the different age groups are encouraged to socialise too.
My little boy obviously learns a lot because his range of vocabulary is amazing - I am often shocked by what he comes out with.
One improvement I would really like is for the children to go out into the community a little more ie walking to the shops, or visiting certain places however I do appreciate this may not be an easy thing to do!
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We really appreciate it.

We have had two children at Jack and Jill’s. Our first son was 9 months old through to starting primary school and our second son is still there. We really love the nurturing environment there, the staff led by managemnt really care. We’ve found it reassuring the staff seem to be well settled and this gives continuity. Also, the activities seem well structured and we feel our little ones learn a lot from nursery. More than we originally expected. No hesitation in recommending it.
Thank you so much for your review. We really appreciate it.
