My name is Kiesa Elliott, and I am the nursery manager.
I work with a fantastic team who nurture and support children from the age of 2yrs to 5yrs.
Once you have read our information, please go to the ‘About Us’ page and use the 'Contact Us' form to get in touch with Lindsay, my office administrator. Lindsay works a part-week so there maybe a short delay in her response; but she will answer your enquiries and guide you through booking a place for your child.
Micklefield Nursery doesn’t charge any administration fees and we don’t require a deposit. You can sign your child up with us completely FREE of charge. You will then be invited in for a visit and at that point should you change your mind, we will simply take you off our books.
Children can start just after their second birthday; although some families prefer to wait until they receive the EYEE funding.
You can use your 2yr old & 3-4yr old funding here.
Every child is unique and their Early Years education is tailored accordingly.
Every child is assigned a key person – they will build a positive relationship with you and your child to ensure their experience is a happy one.
From the minute you walk through the door you will receive a warm welcome.
Educating young minds is what we do best and our robust systems during recruitment shows how Micklefield Nursery is committed to safeguarding the children in our care.
'Children are at the heart of everything we do'.
Micklefield Nursery School has a uniform and this is an additional cost. Children really feel a sense of belonging when they put it on and its good practice for school.
Micklefield is run by a Board of Trustees and is a non-for-profit organisation.
We welcome newcomers and fundraisers!
A day in the life at Micklefield.
We have a ‘soft’ arrival and pick up system where parents are encouraged to come into the classroom. Spend as long as you need to settle your child to an activity of their choice – having a good sense of wellbeing is key to your child’s learning.
At pick up time you will find your child busy at play and you can spend a few minutes with your key person to see how they have been. Many families dash to do the school run – we open our doors at 2:45pm to enable you to get to where you need to be safely.
Every classroom has access to a secure outside area.
The pergolas provide shade and shelter from the elements and we go out in any weather!
Micklefield provides drinking water and a mid-morning snack at no extra cost.
Parents provide a packed lunch for those children staying all day or if they come for the afternoon.
Why not give us a call and book a viewing to see us for yourself.
Remember, we DO NOT demand any up-front fees.
It costs nothing to declare an Expression of Interest in your child coming to Micklefield.
Funding can be shared between childcare providers.
