Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool in Whiteley

About Our Nursery

Curriculum

We follow a rich Early Years curriculum that supports communication, creativity, physical development, and early understanding of the world. Children learn through play, discovery, and hands‑on experiences that build confidence and essential skills for school.

Children also benefit from a range of bespoke educational programmes designed to help children develop independence, curiosity, and a love of learning.

Team

Our dedicated team of Early Years professionals are passionate about providing high‑quality care and education. Many staff members have been with us for years, offering stability and consistency for children and families.

We have qualified SENCo staff, multilingual team members, and practitioners with a wide range of Early Years experience. Their knowledge, warmth, and commitment help create a safe, supportive environment where children thrive.

Facilities

Our purpose‑built nursery offers eight well‑designed rooms, each filled with natural light and high‑quality resources. Children enjoy free‑flow access to the garden, a calming reception area, and a mindfulness space that supports emotional well-being. Our woodland area and outdoor learning spaces encourage exploration, imagination, and connection with nature.

Playrooms

Our playrooms follow a sea‑animal theme and support different age groups. Clam (Babies) – A cosy, nurturing baby room with a home-from-home feel and direct garden access and use of our sensory room. Crab, Starfish & Seahorse (Younger Toddlers) – Bright, engaging rooms with free‑flow access to the garden for outdoor play. Octopus & Seal (Older Toddlers) – Stimulating spaces that encourage independence, communication, and exploration. Dolphin & Whale (Preschool) – Purposeful learning environments that prepare children for school through Early Years activities designed to build confidence and key skills. Children transition between rooms based on readiness, ensuring a supportive and child‑led process.
