What makes us magical at Children 1st @ Oakwood (Derby)?

Our beautiful rural location of Oakwood and the fact parents rate us 9.9/10 on DayNurseries.co.uk.

Geography wise we are in Breadsall, but we’re actually situated at Hill Top on the edge of Oakwood which is on the outskirts of Derby. The nursery setting is surrounded by tranquil countryside and boasts two acres of private grounds which include our very own magical forest!

With such a remarkable setting, it’s little wonder that the children thrive in well-organised environments where an extensive range of interesting activities inspires and motivates their development.

Indoors or outdoors, children love the opportunity to explore, create and find out about the world around them through stimulating play-based learning opportunities provided by the staff or initiated by the children.

Our team of experienced staff provide a safe, welcoming and nurturing environment and skilful guidance for the children’s emotional development. A well-established key person approach and our ongoing relationships with families are the foundation of our strong partnerships. This ethos runs through the heart of the nursery from the youngest baby to our older pre-school children as close relationships are forged.

Our busy children enjoy the meals we provide, with a well-balanced menu designed to promote healthy eating and nutritional awareness. All our meals are prepared on site by the nursery chef and, where possible, our food is sourced from local suppliers. All dietary requirements are welcomed and catered for.

We would love the opportunity to introduce you to the team here at Oakwood and take you on a guided tour of our magical nursery.
