Loddon Nursery School
Loddon Nursery School is a private, long established Nursery owned and managed by Director Jayne White since 1993. Our team of highly qualified, dedicated and passionate staff offer outstanding care and education for children from birth to five years. We are open 50 weeks of the year from 8am – 6pm.
We follow ‘The Curiosity Approach’ ethos, offering an environment which creates a culture of curiosity, awe and wonder that ignites and inspires children’s enthusiasm to play and learn.
Our approach is to provide a calm, natural environment rich in loose parts, open ended and authentic resources. This creates thoughtful invitations to learning which capture and inspires children’s imaginations.
Ladybird Room
Ladybird Room is for 9 of our youngest children aged 0-2 years in which we provide a welcoming, nurturing environment to create a ‘home from home’ experience meeting each individual family’s needs. Babies enjoy a beautiful natural environment in which qualified, experienced and caring staff build strong trusting relationships with families. Babies have endless opportunities to explore heuristic and sensory play both in and outside.
Caterpillar Room
The Caterpillar Room has up to 22 children aged from 2 to early 3’s. Our spacious and thoughtfully laid out environment reflects the natural world, rich in loose parts and authentic resources to promote Independence, learning and exploration.
Butterfly Room
Our Butterfly Room is home to 18 children in the year prior to starting school. This modular classroom provides a rich enabling environment where children become independent learners and critical thinkers, building on their own experiences in preparation for school.
Garden
We have a beautiful natural environment where children have endless opportunities to explore the varied resources; loose parts including, real bricks, guttering, wooden pallets, logs, tubing, cable reels etc. Our garden area incorporates a sensory path which leads children to different areas including a mud kitchen, construction area, water feature, raised growing beds and a secret garden. Bamboo and soft planting provides a natural, sensory experience for all.
Both Caterpillar and Butterfly rooms are able to access the garden in all weathers through daily “free flow” play, choosing when they wish to use the inside/outside. Ladybird children access the garden daily within their routine.
“My family and I are beyond grateful for all the hard work undertaken by all the staff, whom could not have done more to accommodate and care for my children. I cannot recommend Loddon Nursery School enough and am so indebted to them”

It's never easy leaving your children to go off to work, but Loddon Nursery have made it a far less painful task than it could be, as I know that my children are happy, stimulated, and extremely well cared for during their day. In my opinion, Jayne, Alison and Tracey run an exceptional nursery and I am so glad that both of my children have enjoyed their early years education here

When my little girl was told she could be lactose intolerant, I was worried how we would go about this, however the ladies at Loddon Nursery were excellent as always, and wrote down a list for us, so we could buy the same products for her. The ladies are so passionate in what they do and it really does show, nothing is ever too much trouble and they are brilliant!

I have been very happy with the support that they have offered to both my son and myself – being a very anxious parent this was greatly appreciated and has helped him to settle well into the nursery. I’m so glad that I chose Loddon Nursery, even going as far as travelling an hour out of my way in the morning and evening to get him there!

My son has been attending Loddon Nursery for over a year now and we (and he) couldn’t be happier. Having visited many nurseries we were bowled over by how personal and committed the whole team are. In the early days I was a nervous wreck leaving my son and I was constantly reassured by all the team, they even called me on my mobile to say he was fine just so I didn’t worry”
