About Olivers Rainbow Nursery Limited

Oliver's Rainbow Nursery is a family run setting that looks to give all children an equal opportunity to have an education and a safe place to learn through play.

Our setting boasts a large, dedicated play area for each age group and our resources are specifically selected to help our children get the best learning experience through structure and play.

Caring and nurturing is in our directors blood at Oliver's Rainbow and once we'd found the right team of Managers and key staff, we knew we had the best chance to give as many children as we could, an amazing experience.

Your child's journey begins with family and we fully understand the importance of this and always insist on your interaction and involvement at every step of your child's time with us. We use an app called Tapestry which we update daily to keep you posted on your child's growth.

Our curriculum has been carefully designed to meet all levels of child development on an individual basis and we work together with local specialist departments when needed to ensure key areas and milestones can be achieved.
