Employer

MUCH WOOLTON OLD SCHOOL NURSERY LTD

Much Woolton Old School Nursery is a small private nursery located in South Liverpool. Nestled within beautiful gardens, children have the opportunity to explore and play outdoors every day, regardless of the weather. Our staff members are fully trained and possess extensive experience in Early Years education. We take pride in being a small setting, accommodating between 20 to 30 children per session. This intimate environment allows us to quickly build strong relationships with each child and their families, enabling us to deliver personalised and unique care. We welcome children from the age of two and implement a 'free-flow' system throughout all areas of our setting. This approach fosters interaction among children of all ages, promoting development in various areas while also encouraging independence. The success of this method has been remarkable. Above all, we prioritise creating an environment where our children feel safe, secure, and at home during their time with us.
