Dunkys Day Nursery - Culcheth

Dunkys Day Nursery Culcheth is located in the heart of Culcheth, Warrington, within the hub of the village near to the cafes, park, library and medical centre.  There are two local primary schools only a short walk away from where the nursery is situated. 

The nursery was previously a medical centre and has been transformed into a state of the art nursery.  The building is very spacious indoors and has an outdoor area, the nursery is registered for 55 children.  The nursery has the highest standard of security including state of the art biometric finger print and key coded doors access and CCTV cameras in all rooms. 

The nursery caters for children 0-5 years.  The nursery has a large baby room, toddler room and preschool room which can all access secure outdoor areas.  The rooms are very comfortable and are equipped with soft furnishings were children can relax and spend quality time making new friends and learning new skills in the stimulating and educational environment. 

We encourage children's independence and we regularly consult with children to ensure their involvement in making decisions and having choices about their rooms and equipment and activities.  Our garden is fully secure and monitored by CCTV.  We take our children outdoor daily where they can enjoy growing their own fruits and vegetables as well as developing other skills and experiences.  The children can use these in their cookery lessons where they can have the opportunity to learn about the food groups.

The health safety and well being of the children in our care is paramount.  All our staff are DBS checked and references received before they join our team.  Staff are fully trained in how to deliver the Early Years Foundation Stage. 

The curriculum is based on each individual child and their stage of development as well as current interests.  Staff can identify children's characteristics of effective learning to ensure they create an enriched environment which supports every child's leaning style.  We offer in the moment planning where practitioners are skilled to facilitate the children's leaning in the moment as it happens. 

We offer a wide range of opportunities such as creative and messy play, sensory play, baking, understanding of the world, imaginative play and role play, problem solving reasoning and numeracy, information and communication technology and much more.
