Welcome to Early Learners Nursery
Welcome To Our Nursery
Welcome to our new website.
Early Learners Nursery is a term time only Nursery, operating from the Friends Meeting House in Cotteridge.
Here at Early Learners, we value every child as an individual. We are passionate about providing a stimulating and fun environment that encourages children's interests, needs and capabilities.
At Early Learners, staff support children to develop a positive sense of self and give them the skills to show respect to others, to resolve conflicts and follow the rules and boundaries of nursery and everyday life. Staff nurture children's independence through allowing them to make choices regularly within play, by encouraging self-care and allowing children to follow their own learning paths.
"All children including those with SEND have a wealth of opportunities to help them develop fundamental skills for their next stage in their education" - OFSTED 2022
"Parents say that this setting is amazing and the support they and their child receive is fundamental to the progress children make." - OFSTED 2022
OFSTED identified our SEND provision as exemplary.
