Ambourne House is a small family run nursery, located in South Gloucestershire and very close to Bristol. We have been providing high quality childcare at our nursery since 1991 and the emphasis has always been placed upon the security, happiness, education and individual needs of each child.
Our nursery provides a safe environment where children can explore, experiment, plan and make decisions for themselves. Our ethos has always been to promote a loving, caring and totally inclusive environment that nurtures children’s unique qualities and potential, thus empowering them to become lifelong learners.
We offer set full or part-time sessions for children aged 3 months to five years, although try to be as flexible as possible to best meet the needs of your family. The nursery opens at 8.00am and closes at 5.45pm. We open during school holidays; however, we close for Bank Holidays and have an extended break at Christmas, for which no fee is payable. We are permitted to take a small number of children up to 8 years of age, within our ratios, after school and during school holidays.
The nursery had an excellent Ofsted inspection in June 2009 and were delighted to receive ‘outstanding’ and ‘good’ judgments, which Ofsted states, reflects that our provision is of ‘exceptionally high quality and strong’. We have undergone assessment, gained a nationally recognised Quality Assurance Award and have received an ‘Investors in Children’ certificate. This Governmental initiative acknowledges those practitioners who provide care and education of a higher quality than is required by Ofsted.
