Providing loving and caring childcare for babies and pre-school children
One of our best attributes at Acorn Nursery is the staff that works there. They are bursting with love and enthusiasm for the children and concentrate on helping them to develop and learn in a fun and stimulating environment. The design of the nursery enables us to be a very close working team and communication within the nursery is our key to ensuring we are all working to the highest standard.

Having had the opportunity to design our facilities from the ground up, every aspect of our accommodation has been thought through to ensure we are able to provide a safe, secure and nurturing environment for every child in our care.Our premises are tucked away in a quiet corner of Somerton Business Park, which offers excellent access and plenty of parking. From the moment you step through our secure entrance into the nursery you will be transported to a fun-filled, colourful and warm environment tailored to your child’s needs. We also have an outside play area and garden which gives us secure access to a lane from which we take regular outings.
pen-plan accommodation allows us to foster a true community within the nursery, and also aids communication and interaction across age ranges.Low level partitions divide the open plan area into three main sections. ‘Big Acorns’ is the pre-school area for children aged 3-4, with a ‘Little Acorns’ section for children aged 18 months to three years and a ‘Baby Acorns’ area for 3 to 18 month olds. A sleep room, with cots for babies, is separated from the open plan accommodation.At the centre of our open area is the kitchen where we cook healthy meals from locally-sourced, organic ingredients.
This is an amazing nursery where care is given to the highest level. This nursery gives me the peace of mind to know my children are in a safe place with well-trained staff that help my children to learn, play and grow.
One reason why I chose Acorn Nursery was because I really like how the younger children mix with the older children for activities such as story time – I think they learn such a lot (both socially and intellectually) from being in a mixed age group, and judging by the number of words and signs that our daughter comes home with, her language development is well supported by the nursery. My partner and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our daughter receives at Acorns and every member of staff we have come into contact with has always impressed us.
My son has attended Acorn Nursery since June 2010. He is due to start school in September and the practitioners have helped develop him to become ready for his change in his life. Acorn Nursery has helped shaped my son into the happy, confident, polite and intelligent boy that he is today.
Since 2011 my daughter has been a member of Acorn Nursery. The nursery has been outstanding in their delivery of care, education, and in her development. Every child within the setting is treated as an individual with its needs being individually met. The very best of care and provision is given and provided for all of the children.
On my initial visit to the nursery the security entry system instantly made me think my child would be safe within the nursery. The team were lovely to my child and my child and myself took to the setting and key worker very quickly. In the time my child was at Acorns I always felt she was safe, loved and cared for – these being my main concerns. But on top of this Acorns gave my child so much more…
We just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate all that Acorn Nursery has done for our two daughters over the past four and a half years. We have always been very impressed with the staff and with their level of care and attention given to our children. We have never felt less than a hundred percent confident that they were in a safe environment.
