Montessori education is at the heart of everything we do. For us, that means respecting children as capable, curious individuals and giving them the tools to explore the world at their own pace. It means creating environments where they can choose, discover, and problem-solve independently—with the gentle guidance of skilled practitioners.
Our rooms are carefully prepared with this in mind.
- Explorers (0–2 years): A calm, nurturing space where babies can build secure relationships, explore sensory play, and discover the world safely.
- Adventurers (2–3 years): Dynamic, hands-on environments where toddlers can explore, create, and develop their early independence.
- Inventors & Voyagers (3–5 years): A purposeful preschool room designed to prepare children for school and beyond, with a focus on critical thinking, independence, and confidence.
By following children’s interests, we support their natural love of learning. Whether it’s pouring water at the snack table, threading beads to develop fine motor skills, or working together on imaginative play, our children are always learning—because play is learning.
Beyond the Classroom
What really sets Nurture apart is the breadth of experiences children enjoy with us. We are one of the very few nurseries in Staffordshire to offer weekly swimming lessons, giving children confidence in the water from the earliest age. Alongside this, we take learning beyond our walls with regular outings into the community. From trips to the shops to visits to local parks and libraries, these experiences help children connect with the wider world and develop a real sense of belonging.
Being located alongside M Club Spa & Fitness also makes us convenient for families — right on Newcastle Road, with easy access to the hospital, town, and main routes.
A Team Who Care
Our practitioners are the heart of Nurture. Highly qualified, passionate about early years, and dedicated to every child, they bring the Montessori approach to life. We know that leaving your child in someone else’s care is one of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make, which is why we place such importance on building strong, trusting relationships with families.
You’ll find that our team are not only skilled educators, but also compassionate, patient, and attuned to the little details that make all the difference. A reassuring smile, a thoughtful update at the end of the day, or the way we celebrate each child’s unique achievements—it’s all part of what makes Nurture feel like home.
Award-Winning Care
In 2025, we were delighted to be recognised with the Most Enriching Early Years Education Provider – Staffordshire award at the Midlands Enterprise Awards. For us, this was a proud moment—not just because it celebrates our work, but because it highlights what parents already know: that Nurture is a place where children flourish.
Why Families Choose Nurture
Parents tell us time and again that what they value most is the balance we strike. We are structured yet flexible, nurturing yet challenging, homely yet ambitious. We prepare children for the next stage of their journey, but we never rush childhood.
By blending Montessori practice with enriching activities, a strong focus on wellbeing, and a commitment to independence, we give children the very best foundation. When they leave us, they do so as confident, curious individuals—ready for school, and ready for life.
Nurture Childcare is more than a nursery. It’s a community where children are seen, heard, and celebrated. A place where independence is nurtured, learning is joyful, and every child’s journey is respected. And for families, it’s a safe, supportive space where you can be confident your little one is receiving the very best care.
We’d love to welcome you and show you what makes Nurture so special
