We are Opening The Doors to Our Amazing Nursery Join Us for Our Open Week In May

Our Baby Room

Babies stay in our Baby Room from three months old until they are confidently mobile, which varies on an individual basis. Our biggest priority when looking your baby is to provide a caring, nurturing and loving environment. We will ensure your baby settles well into the nursery setting from the outset by focusing on providing a comfortable and safe yet stimulating environment.

Our Baby Nursery Room in Royston is a warm, homely environment where your baby can play, explore, rest and sleep.

At this age, interactions and communication are really important to support your baby’s development. Our staff devote uninterrupted time to play with, talk to and sing to your baby to ensure they feel content and to encourage their language development.

Creative play and sensory play in a stimulating environment are also important and contribute to your baby’s early learning experiences. Babies grow and develop rapidly during their first year, and as they become more mobile, physical play is also encouraged.

Our Royston Baby Room has:

  • A cosy area for children to relax in
  • Treasure baskets filled with natural materials
  • A baby-friendly book and puppet area
  • Dream coracles to aide our babies to sleep well
  • Toddle Boxes to support developing physical development
  • A size appropriate role play area
  • Access to messy play opportunities
  • A space for children to mpve and dance with musical instruments
  • Great access to the outdoor spaces

The Role of the Key Person

Babies need close, loving relationships with adults so that they feel safe and secure. Your baby will be assigned a Key Person whose responsibility is to take special care of your baby and ensure they feel comfortable and secure away from home. They will ensure that your baby’s daily routines are consistent with your timings and home routine and that nappy changing, feeding and settling to sleep are opportunities for one-to-one time.

Our nappy changing and toileting space is located just off of the room for easy access for our team to support the health and wellbeing of your child. Children are fed either individually or in small sociable groups using our lovely community playthings furniture to support children to have as close to a family time meal as possible. Bottle-fed babies are cared for individually, usually fed by their Key Person in our comfortable adult chair.

What Our Parents Say

When leaving our daughter for the first time we were reassured and supported every step of the way. My daughter comes out of nursery happy after having her feedback and it's amazing how they adapt to each child's needs. She enjoys looking at her learning journey with us, saying what she is doing in the pictures. The setting is calm and welcoming, the staff are enthusiastic and caring . Bumpkins has endless opportunities for my daughter to explore and learn in a natural curiosity way. She has made lovely bonds with the grownups already; she has settled so quickly and that is down to the amazing team and managers that support her and help her thrive!

PA (Mother of Child)

Very talented and caring staff. My son really loved this nursery. He learnt a lot in all aspects from communication, relationship building, being independent, to learning maths, shapes, letters, word, sentences etc. Really pleased with the development. Thanks to all the lovely staff, you are all the best.

Vaibhav H (Father of Child)

My daughter has been in the nursery since the Baby Room. It has been an incredible journey. Now she is in the pre-school and every day she is excited to go to the nursery. She loves the staff, her key worker, the other kids, the setting (especially the garden). She really enjoys all the activities organised through the week/day. She enjoys and has fun while learning. The staff encourage and support multilingual families making the kids feel proud they can speak more than one language. Now the staff are also getting her ready to go to school this September. The staff have always been amazing, very approachable, flexible and caring.

B C (Father of Child)

The staff are so kind and caring, they all know my daughter even those in different rooms. She skips in to see them every day and they are as excited as me when she does new things. It's a home away from home.

H G (Mother of Child)

I can't thank the staff enough for giving me peace of mind when my child is with them. The number and variety of activities each day is amazing and the fact they manage to get in the garden or go on trips - even in winter is fantastic. My child's development is streets ahead of his peers who don't attend nursery.

S H (Mother of Child)

The nursery has a lovely nurturing and vibrant atmosphere which my son loves. There is plenty of space for him to explore and learn via the vast range of toys and equipment they have. I know he is well cared for. I am always well informed and I work together with the nursery staff to give my son the best possible experience.

Claire F (Mother of Child) 

The care, consideration and attention my son receives is exemplary. Staff pay attention to his strengths and weaknesses and verbalise them to us and ideas for developing them are implemented. All staff demonstrate an excellent attitude and have excellent relationships with their designated children.

A D (Father of Child)

The staff were warm, caring and professional and the facilities are great. We felt like our daughter was part of a big family. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all working there.

E S (Mother of Child)

I have been impressed by the level of care given to my son since he started. The daily warm welcome of the staff makes both children and parents alike feel at ease. Seeing the smile on my boy's face as we drive into the car park is proof enough for me that the team are doing something right.

Alexander M (Father of Child)

My little girl has recently started and is absolutely loving her time at nursery. The settling in sessions were brilliant and really helped put my mind at ease, especially with me starting back at work. The ladies in the Baby Room are super friendly and enthusiastic and I can't thank them enough for their support in what could have been quite an emotional rollercoaster.

G W (Mother of Child)

Once I drop my son off into the Baby Room, I feel he's as safe and as well looked after as I do at home.
