Welcome to Nursery
The early years of childhood are filled with firsts - first friendships, first discoveries and first steps towards independence. At Chinthurst Nursery, we create a happy and nurturing environment where children are encouraged to explore, play and grow in confidence.
Whether children join us from home or another nursery setting, our experienced Early Years team take time to get to know every child as an individual, helping them settle quickly and ensuring families feel supported from the very beginning. Chinthurst’s Nursery feels like an extension of home - a place where children build friendships, develop curiosity and discover the excitement of learning through play.
Recognised for Exceptional Early Years Provision
Families often tell us that it is the warmth, patience and genuine affection of our staff that make the greatest difference during those first few weeks. By the time children leave our Nursery and Pre-Reception, they are not only ready for Reception, but are happy, confident and inquisitive learners who genuinely love coming to school.
If you would like to visit us, we'd be delighted to welcome you. Please contact our Admissions Manager, Louise Hughes, at [email protected] or complete an enquiry form to arrange a personal tour.

Our Nursery Journey
Our Nursery is made up of two distinct stages, each thoughtfully designed to support children as they grow in confidence, independence and curiosity.

Our School Ready Programme
At Chinthurst, becoming school ready is a gentle and natural process. We focus on helping children develop confidence, resilience and practical skills so that they move into Reception feeling excited, secure and ready for the adventures ahead.
