Our well-rounded curriculum incorporates a range of activities, including arts and crafts, music, outdoor play, and more, to ensure that every child has the opportunity to explore their interests and develop new skills.

Our History

Chris and Justine have been dedicated to providing exceptional care and education for children since 2005. Starting as childminders in their own home, they built a warm, nurturing environment where children could thrive, treating every child like part of their extended family. Over the years, their passion for early years education grew, and what began as a home-based childcare service blossomed into a thriving family business.

A True Family Effort

Chris and Justine’s four sons; Jason, Callum, Connor, and Jaden have played a major role in the development of the nursery, turning a shared dream into reality. From helping with the construction and design of the state-of-the-art facility to painting, decorating, and preparing every space, their contributions were essential. Now, they are equally involved in the nursery’s daily operations, ensuring it runs smoothly and maintaining the family’s high standards of care and education.

Adding to this family dynamic is their soon-to-be daughter-in-law Bethany, who works at the nursery alongside the team. Her enthusiasm and dedication bring even more warmth and professionalism to the environment, making the nursery a truly family-centered operation where every child is cared for as part of their extended family.

Lizzy’s Journey

Another key member of the team is Lizzy, who worked as a childminder for many years before joining the nursery. Recognizing her dedication, experience, and leadership qualities, Chris and Justine offered Lizzy the opportunity to become the deputy manager in 2019. Since then, she has been a cornerstone of the nursery’s success, helping to create a supportive and well-organized environment for both children and staff. Along side Lizzy another key member of the team Hayley was also offered a role within the nursery. She now works in the baby barn a couple days a week.

A Vision for the Future

In 2018, Chris and Justine learned that Alister Mead was searching for someone to transform an old WWII property into something special. The property held deep meaning, as Derek Mead, the previous owner of Puxton Park, had always envisioned it becoming a place for early years education. Chris and Justine knew they couldn’t pass up the opportunity to carry forward Derek’s vision and bring their own dream to life. The transformation of the old property into a modern nursery was a labour of love. With its historic roots and new state-of-the-art facilities, the nursery is now a unique and inspiring place where children can learn, grow, and explore. It blends the warmth of a family-run business with the innovation and resources of a professional early years education setting.

Why Families Choose Us

At the heart of the nursery is a philosophy rooted in family values, experience, and a genuine passion for nurturing young minds. Chris, Justine, and their dedicated team of practitioners including their sons and Bethany tirelessly to provide children with the best start in life, ensuring every child feels safe, valued, and inspired.

Their journey from home-based childminders to running a thriving nursery in a historic building is a testament to their unwavering commitment to early years education. For Chris and Justine, their nursery is more than just a business it’s a legacy of love, teamwork, and community spirit.
