Muddy Boots Nurseries are a safe place where your child can grow, develop & thrive into their unique self. Our family-from-family, home-from-home private day nurseries offer childcare places for children aged between 6 weeks and 5 years old, giving you the peace of mind to confidently get on with your busy life

Choosing the right day nursery setting, with its style of childcare and philosophy on Early Years Education is probably leaving you feeling uncertain, anxious and a little confused!

That’s where we come in!

Our qualified and experienced team genuinely love the little ones they look after and work hard to ensure every one of their unique interest is built upon, whilst providing plenty of adventurers and new experiences, every single day

At Muddy Boots, we understand leaving your child at nursery can be really tough.

We believe our quality communication, dedicated staff team and unique interest-driven childcare will make it a lot easier!

But… don’t take our word for it!

What makes us unique?

Since opening our doors in January 2012, with only a few team members and a handful of children, we have continually worked to build day nurseries with a strong family ethos and home-from-home feel, which have now been enjoyed by over 1000 families and counting

Here is how we do it:

We focus on outdoor adventures, always

Muddy Boots isn’t just a name, it’s a daily way of life. We believe in as many outdoor adventures as possible, and create amazing outdoor experiences to facilitate them.

We are committed to always evolving for the better

We strive to provide an exceptional early learning experience for every child. We achieve this by regularly reviewing and improving our settings based on the valuable feedback we receive from parents, asked for and responded to every week.

We are built on happy, outstanding teams

We create happy teams by giving them a meaningful voice on the matters that affect them, taking on feedback every week via Friday Pulse, our team engagement tool - because happy teams create happy nurseries, which always results in happy children.

Want to join the
Muddy Boots family?

We make joining the family as simple as possible,
with three easy steps:

  • Your journey will start with show-round where you will meet with one of our management team, get an overview of what life is like at Muddy Boots, as well as having plenty of time to ask all the questions you have

  • If you choose to book with us our team will walk you through the booking process. You will then be invited to book two settling in sessions, where your little one can spend some time in their new room, and you can spend some time getting to know their new key team member

  • Once your little one starts with us, you will have access to our Famly App, which is updated throughout each day with plenty of updates about meals, snacks, sleep and all the different activities they have been enjoying. This, combined with a thorough handover at the end of each day will keep you fully in the loop with life at nursery.
