Every child’s journey should begin with Kind Hearts
Kind Hearts Nursery & Pre Schools
Kind Hearts is a small, close-knit early years family, where we take the time to really know every child and the people who matter to them. Our approach is built on positive relationships, child-led learning and a belief in every child’s potential. We adapt, support and remove barriers so every child has the opportunity to explore, learn and achieve through play.

Learning, Growing, & Discovering
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to early years. We follow children’s interests, build on what they already know and can do, and create meaningful opportunities to learn through play, relationships and everyday experiences.
Learning Through Play
Play gives children the freedom to explore ideas, solve problems, be creative and make sense of the world around them. Our skilled practitioners know when to join in, introduce something new or simply stand back and let children lead the way.
Building Confidence
We encourage children to have a go, make choices, take appropriate risks and discover what they can do for themselves. With supportive adults close by when they’re needed, children gradually build confidence, independence and resilience.
Making Friends
Early relationships help children learn so much about themselves and others. Through play and everyday experiences, we support children to communicate, cooperate, understand emotions, resolve little conflicts and build meaningful friendships.
Ready for what comes next
School readiness is about much more than letters and numbers. We help children develop the communication, independence, confidence, curiosity and practical skills that give them strong foundations for school — and for whatever comes next.
Why Families Choose Kind Hearts
Every child is different, and we believe their early years experience should reflect that. From the relationships we build to the environments we create, everything we do starts with the individual child.
Every Child is Known
Strong relationships come first. We take the time to understand each child’s personality, interests, strengths and needs, so they feel safe, secure and confident to be themselves.
Learning Through Real Life & Play
Children learn by doing. We use play, real-life experiences and everyday moments to spark curiosity, build independence and develop skills that have meaning to them.
Every Child Can Achieve
We start with what a child can do, not what they can’t. We adapt our environments, experiences and support to remove barriers and give every child the opportunity to participate, progress and thrive.
Flexible Funding to Suit Your Family
We offer government-funded childcare for eligible children, with flexible attendance patterns wherever possible. Funded hours are free at the point of delivery, with no compulsory charges for accessing your funded place.
5-Star Food Hygiene Rating
Our preschools are proud to hold a 5-star food hygiene rating. We provide children with a variety of snacks and encourage positive, relaxed experiences around food, while maintaining high standards of food safety and hygiene every day.
