Little Nestlings is a private, family run nursery provision, with an established staff team committed to the strengths of working together for children's well-being, and quality of education.

 

We run from a beautiful old building located on Broad Street, in the heart of Hereford town centre, allowing us to give children the best of both worlds - from beautiful green spaces and the opportunity to explore the great outdoors, to also being able to offer the experience of small city life, exploring everywhere from the library to the museums, the market, the cathedral, the fire station, the dentist, the pet shop, and anywhere else we can think of or takes our fancy! 

 

Inside our beautiful building we operate in two age dedicated rooms:

​

Our main room houses our Explorer (2 Years+) and Investigator (Preschool) groups and next door we have our Little Birds room, where our babies and toddlers are based.

 

Our Little Birds room consists of two areas, connected with a little sleep room in between. We prioritise a calm, home from home atmosphere, with lots of interesting resources to explore, and lots of areas curated to encourage physical development and growth. Each child has a carefully allocated key worker who strives to develop a strong and lasting relationship with each child and their families, ensuring that both are safe in the knowledge that the children's happiness and development is prioritised, encouraged, and aided in any and all ways possible. 

 

Transitions are simple at the Nest, and popping next door to join the older children when the time comes gives no need for distress or confusion - our main room offers a carefully designed layout encompassing all the areas of learning, to offer the freedom to explore and engage with learning independently. 
​
Our focus is on giving each child a secure and enriching environment to play and be stimulated in, while feeling happy and cared for as their unique needs are met.

 

We follow our own curriculum, fed heavily by the EYFS, with Kindness, Communication, and Independence being our three learning pillars. We introduce and explore a huge variety of topics through each childs time with us, pulling on their interests and developmental needs, as well as current events and the changing world around us, in order to give our children a wide and well rounded introduction to the world they live in. 

 

We gently monitor each child's development, ensuring every one receives all the necessary support and intervention needed for them to grown and develop to the best of their abilities. We work with families to access all funding available to them, and support interactions with Health Visitors, Speech Therapists, Social support, and any other professionals involved with the family. Together we aim to help each child to create positive memories, have new experiences, capture and celebrate their achievements with you, and work towards helping each child to become a strong, independent, kind, well rounded individual, ready and supported right through to their first day at school.
