Welcome to Field Lane Children's Centre. The nursery team consists of highly qualified staff who provide a caring, stimulating and happy environment in which your child can develop and learn through play.

Field Lane Children's Centre is a 30 place setting with nine places in our baby room (6 weeks to 2 years) and 21 places in our toddler room (2 to 3 years). The pre-school children are catered for by the attached school nursery class (3 to 4 years).

We are registered with the local authority and Ofsted. We pride ourselves in working in partnership with parents / carers, Field Lane Primary School, other professionals and members of the community. The nursery is situated in the children's centre and is attached to Field Lane Primary School.

Call in for a coffee and a chat, and find out what your children's centre can do for you.
