Located in the beautiful and historic surroundings of the University of Essex, Wivenhoe Park Day Nursery is a leading nursery in Colchester offering vibrant and stimulating childcare for children aged three months to five years.
Our large Colchester based day nursery offers vibrant and stimulating child care for children aged three months to five years. Childcare sessions are available to all University students and staff, and members of the public by application.
Based within the beautiful Colchester campus of the University of Essex, the Wivenhoe Park Day Nursery makes good use of the natural parkland and the University’s global community.
We welcome all applications – whether you are a student, employed at the University or a member of the public. We currently offer both morning and afternoon sessions as well as full daycare, so we can help arrange childcare to suit your needs. Wivenhoe Park Day Nursery provides childcare all year except weekends, bank holidays and Christmas vacation.
Our picturesque setting offers a wide variety of stimulating and interactive activities for babies, toddlers and pre-school children. Our dedicated areas include indoor and outdoor space for sand and water play, creative one-on-one activities and rest areas. Each area has direct access to our own secure garden where the children are encouraged to play outside as much as possible, allowing free flow play and rich learning opportunities. This educational environment is further strengthened by our extensive activity programme and equipment, with nursery staff regularly adapting the activities for the children in their care.
As Wivenhoe Park Day Nursery is situated at the University of Essex we utilise the global community around us and welcome the opportunity to explore, explain and celebrate different cultures within our day nursery childcare provision. Children relish the opportunity to visit our main campus, absorbing all that goes on around them on the squares and across campus.
We understand that choosing childcare is an important decision. If you would like to visit us to get a feel for our nursery and see the care we provide, our dedicated Wivenhoe Park Day Nursery team will be happy to show you around and answer any questions.
