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.

Thank you very much for your kind words. She will be greatly missed.
Would highly recommend this nursery, my son went here and absolutely loved every second. My son loved being outside learning and they have such a lovely outside area for children to play and learn. All the staff are very friendly and helpful.

My two and a half year old daughter has been at Jack and Jill’s for three months now. She absolutely loves it! She cannot wait to go in the mornings and chats about all of her new friends and everything she has done when she gets home. She has learnt so much already through lots of play and having...
She can be quite shy at times, but can really be herself at Jack and Jill’s. The staff are great and really nurturing and caring. They take things at the children’s pace. My daughter loves bringing pictures back to show us and singing all of the songs she has learnt. Her confidence has grown massively in the short time she’s been there.
My son has made loads of progress whilst being here and he absolutely loves being here with the staff.

My son has made loads of progress whilst being here and he absolutely loves being here with the staff.
He loves playing outside in the mud kitchen and 9 times out of 10 when I pick him up, he has had a change of outfit due to getting himself soaked in the garden but he has really enjoyed himself doing it too.
The staff here are amazing the nursery is always clean, welcoming and very friendly. If I didn't have to work, I would rather spend my days here as they have so much fun while learning, I may even learn a few things myself.
I would like the take this opportunity to say thank you to all the staff for putting up with my wee one since last year. I'm confident, thanks to you guys, that he will be ready for big school in September. I know he and I will miss you all greatly.
Lots of love.
Thank you for your lovely review.
This nursery is fantastic. There is such a bright, airy feel to the space and the children are all really happy. All of my children have attended this preschool and have all been very happy here - they have all also been well prepared for school life. My son currently loves to play outside in their...
I feel that I am part of the preschool, too, as they always inform me of what he has been doing during the day. They have recently started some really lovely activities for parents to get to know each other too - an early breakfast once and I think they are planning an evening 'bedtime story'.
It is a wonderful nursery that has retained an intimate 'homely' atmosphere. The staff are professional and highly experienced - each lending a different skill to the team.
I feel that this preschool understands what is important to a child, and what is important to a parent - and manages to keep both happy!!!!!
Thank you for your lovely review.

Professional and approachable staff in a nursery with a fantastic atmosphere. My son really looks forward to the days he attends Jack and Jill and I can't fault the staff. Since my son has been at the nursery, they have invested into upgrading their garden which is brilliant, most days weather dependent, my son enjoys time in the garden.
My girls enjoy the nursery and tell me about their friends and their activities with enthusiasm. The topics that are covered the girls discuss at home. The staff are approachable and take pride in their job, the children and the nursery.

His confidence has improved significantly since he started and he always brings things home that he makes or tells us about what activities or cooking he's been doing.
I really like how all of the play and learning zones are arranged and the staff are always so friendly and understanding towards individual needs. Also, they are very good at keeping parents updated with various subjects they are concentrating on and sending newsletters etc...
I genuinely feel like my child is as happy, safe and cared for at Jack and Jill as if he were in my care.
I know my son will really miss going here when he starts school and I will definitely be choosing Jack and Jill for my next child!

My son has been attending Jack and Jill's since September 2016. My son settled quickly and loves going there. He had gained so much from the time he has spent there. Aside from all the usual qualities e.g. feeling safe, a lovely environment, good facilities, the thing that makes this nursery stand out above others is the staff. They are so friendly, helpful and supportive. They provide a varied selection of fun activities designed to focus on each area of development. They encourage the children to take part in all activities. They are also great at realising a child's own interests or strengths and build or adapt activities to suit these. My son has been extremely happy here and always talks enthusiastically about the things he does. A great nursery!

My daughter always comes home and tells us about the fun things she has learnt/played with which is always lovely to hear. I want to say a big thank you to all the Jack and Jill staff, you do a great job!
Fantastic nursery with caring and knowledgeable staff. My son attended this nursery and was happy and contented there enjoying all activities inside and in their outside space. Staff attended a specialist training course for Autism to help with my son's additional needs.

My granddaughter has made several little friends and, as an only child, this has been an important aspect of her time there.
The facilities are superb and the opportunities given throughout the morning are second to none. My granddaughter is full of excitement when she is collected at the end of her sessions and loves to tell us all what she's been up to. We've frequently heard new songs she's learned and new activities she's done.
I can't recommend this nursery highly enough.
I have been extremely happy with my daughters care, and have seen her come on leaps and bounds since attending Jack and Jills.

Exceptionally professional childcare. The staff are very competent and have my child's best interests at heart, they take an active interest in her social and emotional learning and well being, as well as subtly preparing her for her transition into school. This is a fantastic setting, I visited a lot of nurseries and felt that 'Jack and Jill's' honestly nurture my child as opposed to just supervising children. I can wholeheartedly recommend 'Jack and Jill's' to any parent.
Thank you very much for your very wonderful review.
I am very impressed with the quality of childcare my daughter has at Jack and Jill, she comes home happy after every session and she does a lot of outdoor and messy play which she absolutely loves. She started in March 2016 and has settled really well here.
