What Makes Us Different
Dunnikier Park Nursery & Playgroup stands out by offering a warm, child-led environment which has a smaller child to staff ratio of 1-5. We encourage every child to explore, learn, and grow at their own pace. Our open-door policy, rich core provision, and nurturing team create a space where children feel confident, valued, and supported. We build strong relationships with families and work closely with each child to understand their interests and needs.

We pride ourselves on being :
- Child-centred – children lead their learning through play, curiosity, and imagination.
- Nurturing – we create a safe, caring space where every child feels secure and supported.
- Inclusion – every child is valued, respected, and celebrated for who they are.
- Outdoor Learning – time outside is essential for wellbeing, confidence, and creativity.
- Partnership with Families – we work with parents to support each child’s learning journey.
