Radmoor Day Nursery and Loughborough College offered a warm welcome to children and parents as doors opened at its brand new town site.

Now based in Radmoor Road, the new development offers indoor and outdoor spaces which will see the nursery build on the “exciting and stimulating activities” praised by education watchdog Ofsted alongside its “extremely effective” staff and “strong” partnerships with parents, when both the nursery and holiday club for 4-11 year olds was recently rated Good across the board.

The bright and airy nursery provides learning areas for a range of age groups with direct access to safe and stimulating outdoor play spaces and a sensory room including fibre optics and projections is set to enhance this exciting space and support the children’s learning and development.

“Our nursery has been part of the Loughborough community for more than 20 years and we are delighted to welcome children and parents to our brand new venue,” said Radmoor Day Nursery manager Veronica Savill.

“The babies have a dedicated safe play area which leads through to a low-fenced grassy area with rosemary, chive and lavender planters and the children are looking forward to adding to this growing space.

“Further challenging equipment is also joining an additional safety- surfaced area outside.

“Our new facilities also offer a brilliant opportunity for Loughborough College’s childcare students to gain valuable nursery training.

“A beautiful, large space inside is perfect for large groups of our children to dine and socialise together.

“The area has the flexibility for our staff and visiting trainers to use it to deliver a really varied curriculum and during school holidays, starting this summer, the Radmoor Holiday Club will also run from the venue.

“We’re offering the large room for hire to accommodate birthday parties during weekends and other groups for childcare-related activity, for example paediatric first aid or baby massage, during the week.

“We were particularly pleased when the Ofsted inspectors remarked on our nursery’s home from home atmosphere, how much the children enjoy all the activities we provide and how they gain skills and progress as a result - and our brand new nursery can only enhance that.”
