The Old School House Day Nursery

Welcome to The Old School House Day Nursery @ Sancton, a leading childcare provider located in the heart of the Yorkshire Wolds village. Our passion is to nurture confident, kind, and curious children, and we are committed to delivering on this promise. We are proud to have received Outstanding ratings from Ofsted in 2010, 2016, and 2021, a testament to our unwavering commitment to providing the best care and education to children aged 6 months to 5 years.

At our nursery, we offer a unique and inspiring learning environment that encourages children to explore, discover, and grow. Our experienced and qualified educators are dedicated to fostering a love of learning and helping each child reach their full potential. We believe that every child is unique, and we strive to provide an educational experience that is tailored to their individual needs and interests.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is centered around play-based learning, an approach that allows children to test their ideas, make discoveries, and express themselves through carefully planned experiences. We believe that creativity is as important as literacy and mathematics, and we strive to provide opportunities for children to develop their creative interests and talents.

At The Old School House Day Nursery @ Sancton, we believe that the outdoors is an essential part of a child's learning and development. Our children spend as much time outdoors as they do indoors, and we provide a variety of opportunities for them to explore and connect with nature. From our Outdoor Explorers programme to our woodland sessions, we help children develop a deep appreciation for the natural world and the important role it plays in their lives.
