Eagley School House Nursery opened its doors in 2003, providing a welcoming, secure and loving environment in which children flourish, and parents feel comfortable. Our founder and owner, Julie Robinson, is a qualified teacher with Early Years Professional Status; Julie works alongside the team within the Nursery, and due to her reputation and expertise, she also consults for external agencies and nursery settings on the Early Years Foundation Stage framework (EYFS). Our carefully selected team shares the common goal of getting the best out of every child in our care. Staff are well trained, and several hold NVQ’s from Level 4 to graduate EYP status. With commitment and enthusiasm we deliver “The Eagley Way” an extremely high standard of childcare, which earned an outstanding Ofsted in 2011 and again in August 2013. Over the years our reputation for high quality, progressive childcare has led to an increasing demand for places, and so in Spring 2012 we opened the doors to Eagley School House Nursery 2. Operating under the same management and ethos that has cared for countless children and exceeded the expectations of so many parents, Eagley School House Nursery 2 follows the successful “Eagley Way” approach to childcare.
