Inspiring Curious Minds, Building Lifelong Learners
Welcome to Halesowen Day Nursery, a place where we nurture curious minds and develop independent, critical thinkers with a wide vocabulary that will equip them for the future, a strong self-worth and who are resilient and actively engaged in life. We believe in providing a secure base from which children can develop a lifelong love of learning.
We take pride in offering a happy, safe, inspiring and healthy environment for all children and their families. Our ethos is built on trusting relationships, where we advocate a "working together" approach to ensure the safeguarding of children is paramount. We are part of Dudley's Good and Outstanding Network and the Halesowen Township Network, promoting and sharing excellent practice within the Borough.
Our Values
At Halesowen Day Nursery, we are adaptable, nurturing, curious, and respectful. We strive to improve, progress, and think outside the box. We care for and protect growing minds, building connections and welcoming, listening and responding with warmth. We advocate for a positive Christian values and attitudes and foster positive community work, encouraging children to learn about their wider community, a variety of cultures, celebrations, abilities, and genders.
What Makes Us Special?
We are a family-run and family-centred nursery, understanding that in order to really care for our children, we must care for their families too. We provide a wide range of opportunities for parents and families to learn and grow with us, such as parent workshops, parent forums, parents evenings and an open invitation to stay and play. Our STEM learning is all around us in the early years, where we allow the awe and wonder of the children to flourish through open-ended, joint exploration, enhanced by our dedicated space for STEM learning 'Discovery Zone'. Our process-focused artwork provides children with a choice from a wide variety of techniques to express their creativity, with no predetermined outcome imposed by others. We draw from the most current psychological research to inform our approach to challenging behaviour. All staff are trained in Emotion Coaching. We understand that all behaviour is communication and that 'to discipline' means 'to teach'. We strive to be curious about what children are communicating and nurture and support them to learn how to manage their big emotions.
Our Community Work
We foster positive Christian values and attitudes, involving children in a variety of charity, sustainability, and community projects through which they gain a deeper understanding of the world they live in and the important impact that they can have. Children have opportunities to learn about their wider community, a variety of cultures, celebrations, abilities, and genders.
