The best for your child and the best for you.

Milly's Nursery School

We are a small, family orientated nursery school providing high quality care and education in a warm, homely environment. We care for 2 to 5 year olds following the Early Years Foundation Stage, from 8am to 4pm, Monday to Friday, for 50 weeks a year. Choose what suits you best, term time or year round hours, full time or part time hours. Take only the free entitlement without any other charges as we can spread your free hours over 38 or 50 weeks.

We believe every child deserves the best start in life and they learn best through their own play and exploration. We provide a warm, secure, home-like environment both indoors where your child will flourish and grow.

Dressed for the occasion.

The garden at Milly’s provides a major role in our activities, and the children never need to be asked twice about playing outside. As the Great British weather can sometimes do its worst to try to stop our fun, we have invested in some all-weather clothing and spare wellingtons for the children, as well as a variety of hats of all shapes and sizes.

However, please ensure that your child is dressed and prepared for the weather, we do go outside every day and they will need suitable shoes, coats, hats etc. whether the weather be hot. cold or rainy.

We believe that quality early years education is vital to a child’s development and recent research shows that the children who have the greatest success with their GCSE results had attended a pre-school setting. We, therefore, cannot stress the importance of taking full advantage of the free provision. Milly’s does not have a catchment area and we welcome children from all around Basingstoke and the surrounding area. We have a large car park, are on the bus routes and if you can walk or cycle we are easy to get to on wide well-lit paths. So, don’t panic about early years provision, Milly’s will be happy to offer help and advice. Why not sort out your requirements and relax.

Child-centred

We believe that every child is unique, they develop physically, socially and emotionally if they feel happy and secure.

We offer a wealth of opportunities for your child to explore, discover and experiment in a warm, caring environment.

Children learn at their own pace, through their own interests and we personalise the curriculum to meet their individual needs.

Family Focused

Today's parents need childcare to fit around their working schedule and so we offer up to 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 50 weeks a year.

Effectively, we are a pre-school that opens all year apart from the Christmas holiday. Choose between a term-time or full year contract.

We are smaller and more personal as there are places for no more than 20 children at one time.

We have secure online learning journals you can access at any time.
