Our Environments

Exceptional indoor and outdoor environments

Indoor Environments

Angels at Play – Park Road offers a wonderful environment for the children. Our indoor space is superb with carefully thought out layouts in each age-specific room. We have tailored the equipment and resources in each room specifically to the needs of the children in them based on their stages of development. 

Throughout the nursery there is a neutral colour scheme which beautifully enhances the large light filled rooms.  We know that by surrounding the children with a soft and gentle colour palette we allow them to use all of their attention and headspace to get the most from our Practitioners, equipment and resources rather than being overstimulated. We partner our neutral decoration with pale wood furniture and predominantly ‘real resources’ (rather than plastic ones) to give our children a natural feeling and developmental experience in the ‘real world’. 

We have a wealth of resources at Angels at Play Park Road, which we use to ensure that each child gets developmental progress in all areas, experiences a breadth of activities, enjoys lots of opportunities, and is able to pursue their interests and spend their time in ways they want to.

All of our equipment is of the highest quality and is Early Years specific – designed to provide learning and development through play and enjoyment. An example of this is our Community Playthings Nursery Gym. This is a wonderful feature offering physical development, acquisition of physical skills, social development, confidence building and trial-and-error problem solving – all through playing on a structure of a slide, steps, a tunnel, a curved bridge and a platform, where all sorts of games and imaginative adventures can happen. 

Outdoor Environments

 Angels at Play Park Road has fantastic outdoor spaces. Each age group has their own dedicated garden where we can offer an extension of the play and learning opportunities available indoors. There’s ample room for free play, exploration and extension of movement, and active games. We’ve also put lots of specific additional features into them – a Mud Kitchen, a large sandpit, big climbing equipment, a Sensory Garden, a Growing Patch and dens and cosy areas. These offer our children so much stimulation and enrichment across a variety of different experiences. 

Park Road nursery has a rabbit who the children love interacting with. She provides us with the opportunity to teach the children about how to care for her and animals, what she needs and how to meet those needs, the beginnings of responsibility and kindness to all living things. 

What Our Parents Say

Very talented and caring staff. My son really loved this nursery. He learnt a lot in all aspects from communication, relationship building, being independent, to learning maths, shapes, letters, word, sentences etc. Really pleased with the development. Thanks to all the lovely staff, you are all the best.

Vaibhav H (Father of Child)

My daughter has been in the nursery since the Baby Room. It has been an incredible journey. Now she is in the pre-school and every day she is excited to go to the nursery. She loves the staff, her key worker, the other kids, the setting (especially the garden). She really enjoys all the activities organised through the week/day. She enjoys and has fun while learning. The staff encourage and support multilingual families making the kids feel proud they can speak more than one language. Now the staff are also getting her ready to go to school this September. The staff have always been amazing, very approachable, flexible and caring.

B C (Father of Child)

The staff are so kind and caring, they all know my daughter even those in different rooms. She skips in to see them every day and they are as excited as me when she does new things. It's a home away from home.

H G (Mother of Child)

I can't thank the staff enough for giving me peace of mind when my child is with them. The number and variety of activities each day is amazing and the fact they manage to get in the garden or go on trips - even in winter is fantastic. My child's development is streets ahead of his peers who don't attend nursery.

S H (Mother of Child)

The nursery has a lovely nurturing and vibrant atmosphere which my son loves. There is plenty of space for him to explore and learn via the vast range of toys and equipment they have. I know he is well cared for. I am always well informed and I work together with the nursery staff to give my son the best possible experience.

Claire F (Mother of Child) 

The care, consideration and attention my son receives is exemplary. Staff pay attention to his strengths and weaknesses and verbalise them to us and ideas for developing them are implemented. All staff demonstrate an excellent attitude and have excellent relationships with their designated children.

A D (Father of Child)

The staff were warm, caring and professional and the facilities are great. We felt like our daughter was part of a big family. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all working there.

E S (Mother of Child)

I have been impressed by the level of care given to my son since he started. The daily warm welcome of the staff makes both children and parents alike feel at ease. Seeing the smile on my boy's face as we drive into the car park is proof enough for me that the team are doing something right.

Alexander M (Father of Child)

My little girl has recently started and is absolutely loving her time at nursery. The settling in sessions were brilliant and really helped put my mind at ease, especially with me starting back at work. The ladies in the Baby Room are super friendly and enthusiastic and I can't thank them enough for their support in what could have been quite an emotional rollercoaster.

G W (Mother of Child)

Once I drop my son off into the Baby Room, I feel he's as safe and as well looked after as I do at home.
