Location

Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery is conveniently located in the Oxley Park Neighbourhood Centre off Childs Way (H6), near to the V2/H6 Roundabout. The new purpose built nursery provides outstanding facilities for children aged from 3 months through to pre school age.

Babies, Teenies, Toddlers and Pre School all benefit from their own large, dedicated, well equipped areas as the nursery offers over 4100 square feet of accommodation. Each of the areas have their own brightly coloured, child friendly toilets and changing facilities.

The large outside play areas are well equipped and stimulating, designed to burn off energy and encourage roll play. The area is also equipped with the latest impact resistant surface to ensure peace of mind when tumbles occur. The large drop off and collection area is both large and secure being away from public roads.

Facilities

The Nursery is split into four main areas:

Babies

Non mobile babies benefit from a large, bright, open plan day room, well equipped with the latest in sensory equipment to stimulate the babies senses during their formative months. As babies spend a lot of time sleeping at this early age, we provide a dedicated sleep room with the temperature constantly monitored to ensure the babies are comfortable at all times. There are never more than three babies to any one member of staff in the babies room, with each baby having their own key worker.

Teenies

The Teenies room is the next step from the babies room, with the day structured around their changing interests. The Teenies room is very well appointed with outstanding levels of equipment, the room follows the ‘birth to three matters’ framework and encourages learning through play. There are various dedicated areas in the Teenies room offering different activities, there is the ‘Story Corner’ where Teenies sit in a group and are read stories. A sand and water play area, a construction area to develop coordination and a messy play area for painting and generally getting messy. Teenies also benefit from a staffing ratio of one member of staff looking after no more than three children.

Toddlers

The Toddler room also benefits from a number of dedicated areas, as in Teenies, the Toddlers have creative areas, a reading corner, circle time and a home area corner. As this is the time when the majority of children start ‘potty training’, the toddlers room is equipped with brightly decorated childrens’ toilets, encouraging independence. The Toddlers play area is fully equipped with an impact absorbing surface and lots of outside equipment designed to encourage coordination and balance.

Pre School

Pre School children follow the ‘Early years foundation stage’ preparing them for their eventual move to school. This is a more structured routine, with children working in groups and becoming accustomed to paying attention for longer periods of time while undertaking monthly topics, based on the six areas of learning: Physical development, personal, social and emotional development, communication, language and literacy, creative development, knowledge and understanding of the world and problem solving, reasoning and numeracy. The Pre School room is fully equipped with child focused IT systems, designed familiarise the children with the essential IT skills before moving on to school. Pre School also have their own easily accessible, brightly decorated childrens’ toilets and well equipped outside play area, designed to stimulate creative activities.

Monkey Puzzle is open from 7.30am – 6.30pm, However our core opening hours are 8.00am – 6.00 pm and parents or guardians are welcome to drop off or collect between these times whenever they like. Parents wishing to take advantage of the extended opening hours can do so on request.
