A place that feels like home
Our History and Vision
The White House Day Nursery has been a cornerstone of the local community for over 35 years, since its establishment in 1988. We are proud to be one of the oldest and most respected independent nurseries in the area. Our story began with a simple yet ambitious goal: to create a nurturing environment where children could grow, thrive, and flourish under the care of our experienced and dedicated staff.
Our Values
At The White House Day Nursery, we are committed to providing a stimulating and enriching experience for every child in our care. We believe that every child is unique and deserves an individualized approach to their education and development. Our highly skilled practitioners work closely with each child to identify their interests and strengths, and design a personalized learning plan that fosters their growth and progress.
Our Approach to Learning
Our approach to learning is built on a philosophy that emphasizes the importance of curiosity, creativity, and exploration. We believe that children learn best when they are engaged, motivated, and having fun. Our practitioners use a variety of techniques and strategies to motivate and inspire children, including project-based learning, role-playing, and problem-solving exercises.
Our Unique Selling Points
What sets us apart from other nurseries in the area is our commitment to providing a truly unique and stimulating environment for children. Our fully enclosed garden is a haven of discovery and exploration, with a water-wall, bug hotel, hill, and tunnel, as well as an outdoor kitchen where children can cook and create. We also offer regular forest school sessions, where children can explore and learn in the great outdoors.
