St Peter and St Paul (Chesterfield)

What makes us magical at Children 1st @ St Peter and St Paul (Chesterfield)?

Our links with the local schools, our access to the wonderful forestry schools provision and the fact parents rate us 10/10 on DayNurseries.co.uk.

We are so lucky to be on the site of the St Peter & St Paul School which means that our children can take advantage of the exciting adventures on offer in the forest area. Our early years’ children love nothing more than getting their puddle suits and wellington boots on and heading down to the trees, making lunch in the mud kitchen or exploring what’s hiding in the bug house.

We are also lucky enough to have the unique presence of our older children who come to the nursery for before and after school sessions and bring with them their own sense of fun and imagination.

It is not just our older children who have all the fun. We are very proud of our separate purpose built baby suite which provides our younger children with a secure and stimulating environment, allowing them to explore and grow in a space that encourages their confidence and skills to develop, whether this is in the sensory area or at the babies’ interactive light feature. The undercover outdoor play areas ensure that, whatever the weather, our little ones can also get bundled up and experience the great outdoors.

All of this has enabled us to be in the fortunate position of having two nursery managers who work together to ensure the smooth running of both buildings. The managers (who between them have an impressive 28 years of partnership with Children 1st) head a team of fun loving and passionate staff, many of whom have trained and grown with the nursery since its inception in 2005.

Why don’t you join us for a tour around the nursery? We would love to meet you and show you what makes us special (or ‘Outstanding’ in Ofsted’s view!)
