Nursery Rhymes Day Nursery, Chesterfield

Welcome and Thank You for Visiting the Nursery Rhymes Website

We know that deciding on a nursery for your child is a very personal and important decision. We understand the importance of learning through play, and we strive to make each day fun, stimulating, and an educational experience.

Established in 1993, Nursery Rhymes has an excellent reputation in Chesterfield. Based in a beautiful Georgian house, we are situated approximately three miles north of Chesterfield town centre, on Sheffield Road, just off the main A61 Dronfield by-pass. The Nursery is registered with Ofsted for forty-five children and provides outstanding care for children aged three months to five years. Nursery Rhymes is privately owned by an experienced hands-on Director, with one other setting in Leicestershire and daily involvement with the nursery.

Open all year round, we are here to support families in the important task of raising their children by providing a happy, safe and secure environment which enables children to thrive.

We recognise that all our children and their families are unique and treat each one equally with respect, celebrating our cultural diversity. No matter what your child’s age, all children at Nursery Rhymes get the opportunity to participate in our creatively-inspired sessions, with lots of messy play, outdoor physical play and child focused activities throughout the day.

The children are based in small groups according to age and development. We invest heavily in our key-person approach, which is about nurturing that triangle of trust between family, child and key person. Our Key worker system ensures that each child’s individual needs are understood and catered for, and each child’s Learning Journey is carefully documented and shared on-line with parents.

Please contact the nursery for a brochure or to arrange a viewing with a member of our Management Team.
