Childcare facilities and nurseries
Friendly, creative and professional staff will make sure your child is learning and growing in a safe, secure and homely environment. Settings are calm and welcoming, with natural resources and extensive outside space. Outdoor learning, sustainable practices, curiosity and mindfulness are key values.
The Maples
At The Maples (Edgbaston Park Road), curiosity-led learning takes place in a home-from-home setting. Thanks to a location next door to Winterbourne House and Garden, children visit the botanic garden daily to explore and learn. The Nursery uses no single-use disposable wipes, and cloth nappies are welcomed. The Maples is for children aged 2 to 4-years-old.
Opening hours

Children can attend full time, or on a sessional basis of mornings or afternoons.

At The Elms (Edgbaston Park Road) and The Oaks (off Bristol Road, Selly Oak), your child can go on an adventure at Forest School, unwind in the Sensory Room, and enjoy a host of activities from music and cookery to yoga and sport. These nurseries are for children aged 6 weeks to 4 years.
