Meals

Our meals are healthy, affordable, and save parents having to prepare food each day. They are prepared safely and follow our food safety and allergen procedures. Mealtimes also help children learn good manners, independence, social skills, and healthy eating habits. These are valuable learning experiences, especially as eating well and managing mealtimes independently can sometimes be difficult for children at home. These are also important life skills that children can continue to use as they grow.

The Farm Experience Club

Our Farm Experience Club gives children the chance to learn outdoors all year round in a fun and hands on way. Children can spend time with animals, use the greenhouse, grow and plant a range of local and exotic plants, and take part in seasonal activities. It teaches children about responsibility, caring for living things, working hard, and understanding the world around them. It also helps build confidence, curiosity, independence, practical skills, and a love of nature. These are valuable skills and experiences that can stay with children for life.

The Wellbeing Club:

Our Wellbeing Club supports children’s health and wellbeing through activities such as vitamin supplements, teeth brushing, and oral hygiene support using child friendly resources. These are valuable independence learning experiences, as many parents find it difficult at home to encourage children to do things like brushing their teeth or following healthy routines by themselves. These are important life skills that can support children’s health, confidence, and independence as they grow.

Overall Experience

I am so grateful to the staff at this nursery. My great, granddaughter was very tearful and clingy to myself. Now with the staff's commitment and hard work she gets in with a smile and a wave.This nursery is absolutely amazing with wonderful caring staff. The app is also a fantastic way to see what your child has been up to.

Overall Experience

My little Boy started at Innsworth pre school in September 2025. He absolutely loves it and seems to be learning a great deal. The staff are all very lovely, and Des goes out of her way to help where possible. It's lovely to have a setting where the children are put first. They have had lots of work done recently, both inside and outside, and it is all looking lovely.

Review from Neelam G (Mother of Child) published on 3 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Where do I even begin? Innsworth Pre-School has been absolutely fantastic. Since our son started in August 2024, we've been so impressed with how well he has settled and how much he looks forward to going each day. The regular updates, photos, and messages mean so much to us as parents-we really feel involved in his day and can see just how much care and attention he receives.
In such a short space of time, the progress he has made has been incredible. His vocabulary has grown, his confidence has blossomed, and he absolutely loves the engaging activities and play opportunities offered. It's clear that the staff put their heart into creating a warm, stimulating, and supportive environment.

Thank you to the entire team for being so wonderful. We couldn't be happier with our experience, and we're truly grateful for everything you do.

Just one suggestion- may be a buggie parking area outside building would be amazing.

Overall Experience

I have sent all 6 of my children to this preschool over the last 18 years. I would not dream of sending them anywhere else.They are like family. The changes you have made over the years have been tremendous. I am heartbroken my last child will be leaving here soon. The support I have received has been over and above. Des is the best.
