Located in the heart of Pinhoe, this cosy bungalow embraces the same outstanding, outdoor, and eco-conscious ethos as all Muddy Boots nurseries, providing a calm and nurturing environment where children can thrive.
The setting focuses on child-led learning, with resources placed at a low level, encouraging children to explore and self-select. A simple block of wood can transform into a car, a phone, or part of a tower, fostering creativity and imaginative play.
Staff are always on hand to scaffold and support, ensuring a positive and encouraging atmosphere without interference or judgement. The large garden offers as many opportunities for learning and exploration as the indoor spaces, strongly emphasising fresh air, exercise, and muddy adventures. Children spend as much time outdoors as possible, benefiting from a no-fuss, child-focused approach that allows them to develop at their own pace, growing into confident, curious individuals prepared for their educational journey and beyond.

Our daughter Jemima has thrived at Muddy Boots. She has made huge progress in many areas but particularly her eating, an area which she has struggled with for a long time. We have felt very supported through the process of addressing her fussy eating. The staff are all so warm and look after Jemima as if she was their own. We will miss Muddy Boots when Jemima starts school!
Kind regards.

The nursery itself is well-equipped, has a big garden area covered and uncovered and very clean.

Nice nursery, especially the welcoming indoor setup, the cleanliness, the engaging activities, and the emphasis on spending time outdoors. The staff members are always kind and caring, which we truly appreciate. However, we have noticed a high staff turnover, which can sometimes be a bit unsettling...
It would be nice to have more lightning as it's hard to see when going to the building especially at pick up in winter time. The car park gets a bit flooded when it rains.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We're pleased to hear that you appreciate our welcoming environment, engaging activities, and the care our team provides. Creating a safe, fun, and nurturing space for children is so important to us. We understand your concerns about staff turnover. While some changes are unavoidable, we're always working to keep our team as consistent as possible to support the children's relationships and routines. We also really appreciate your comments about the lighting and the car park. We know how tricky winter pick-ups can be and will look into improving this.

I am very pleased with the overall experience my son has at nursery. Attending nursery has enhanced his social skills and he often tells me about the friends he plays with. I love seeing photos of the activities he's taken part in on the app, and there's always a range of different activities available which enhances so many different skills whether it's fine motor, pencil control or maths for example. He never has a bad day at nursery, and they always spend some time outside which my son loves - he loves playing in mud or running around with a big stick! The additional Spanish classes provided I think are an excellent way of introducing different languages and cultures to children at a young age, and hopefully sets him up for a life of curiosity and an eagerness to explore the world. Recently at Christmas, he was given a book as a Christmas present which was extremely thoughtful, especially as he loves reading and bedtime stories.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It's fantastic to hear how much your son enjoys his time at nursery, from making friends to exploring the outdoors. We love that he embraces messy play and outdoor adventures-running around with a big stick sounds like so much fun! It's also great to...

My child has attended this nursery since April 2024. The general facilities and cleanliness is very good and my child has always come home happy and is learning at a good rate. However there are areas where this nursery needs to improve, mainly with staff, the nursery staff are not very talkative to parents when picking and dropping off your children. The staff no longer allow you in the room to drop and collect your child so you are in a small area where everyone can hear your conversations and there is a general lack of privacy and sensitive conversations are not private at all. Staff also forgot to give medication back at end of the day. The staff of a nursery are very important to the children and parents who build up relationships so it is a shame. Overall this nursery is excellent for learning has good facilities and very clean. I would recommend this nursery as I feel although there is room for improvement the general qualities are good and the faults can be easy improved.
Thank you for your honest feedback. We're so pleased to hear that your child is happy, learning well and that you value our facilities and cleanliness. That means a lot to us!

Hi, I’m Danni. My early years journey began in 2002 when I started my own childminding business, which I ran for over 10 years. In 2022, I joined Muddy Boots Nursery and have since progressed into the role of Nursery Manager.
I believe early years practitioners should be co-adventurers alongside the children, supporting them as they explore and grow. Creating a warm, home-from-home environment is very important to me, where children feel safe, secure and confident to thrive.
The most rewarding part of my role is seeing children grow, reach their milestones and develop into their own unique personalities. I also value building strong partnerships with families and supporting staff to grow in confidence and develop their careers in early years.
I would love to welcome you to our nursery and show you around, so you can experience our warm and nurturing environment for yourself.
