The Garden Nursery
Step into The Garden – The on-site nursery at Wilmslow Prep, providing a home from home, holistic and nurturing learning environment ,through tailored care, stimulating activities and personalised development opportunities.
At The Garden Nursery, children thrive in a warm, welcoming, home-from-home environment. The nursery’s childcare philosophy is centred on creating a space where every child feels safe, secure and happy, with a true sense of belonging.
Child-Led Learning That Empowers Every Child
At The Garden Nursery, each child is at the heart of their own learning journey. Through a child-led approach to early education, the experienced team of Garden Nursery staff encourage curiosity, creativity, and independence.
Their aim is to help children develop confidence in their own abilities, feel empowered to make choices, and communicate freely in a supportive, respectful space.
A Holistic Approach to Childcare and Wellbeing
The Garden Nursery’s holistic childcare model places equal emphasis on emotional, social, and cognitive development. All staff are passionate about promoting mindfulness, balanced wellbeing, and a strong sense of self-worth.
Every child is supported as a valued member of the extended nursery family, equipping them to have a positive impact both within the nursery setting and in the wider community.
Embracing Nature and Outdoor Learning
Children are natural explorers – and The Garden Nursery supports that instinct by offering a rich, nature-based curriculum. With daily access to outdoor learning experiences, children engage with natural, open-ended resources that inspire imagination and foster a deep connection with the environment.
Building Strong Relationships with Families and the Community
The Garden Nursery’s partnerships with their families are built on trust, open communication, and mutual respect. But their connection doesn’t stop at the nursery gates.
The Nursery actively engage with the local community – taking regular trips to the park, library, and local high street to help children build their Cultural Capital and understand the world around them.
“My child runs into nursery without a care and very rarely says goodbye or gives us a second thought. As you’ve seen recently, I cannot get him to leave as he loves nursery so much- this is a testament to how happy he is, how much he loves the staff and the lovely environment, he definitely sees it as a second home.”
