The Ark Nursery

Welcome to The Ark Nursery!

At The Ark Nursery, we believe that every child deserves a nurturing and joyful environment to grow and learn. Located in the beautiful Mapperley Park, Nottingham, our privately run childcare facility is dedicated to providing quality care for little ones aged 0-5 years for 51 weeks of the year.

A Place for Active Play

We know how important it is for children to stay healthy and active! That’s why our nursery features a fantastic outdoor play area where children can explore, play games, and enjoy the fresh air. Our focus on an active lifestyle helps children develop their physical skills while having fun!

Learning Through Play

At The Ark, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, which guides our approach to learning, development, and care for children from birth to 5 years. This means that every activity is designed to be engaging and educational, helping your child to thrive in a supportive environment.

Holiday Care for Older Kids

We also offer out-of-school holiday care for children aged 5-11 years. During school holidays, we provide exciting activities that keep older kids entertained and engaged while you’re busy.

Our Hours

We’re here for you on weekdays from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, making it easy for parents to drop off and pick up their little ones. Please note that we take a short break during the year and are closed for one week during Christmas.

Partnering with Parents

At The Ark Nursery, we believe that communication and parental involvement are key to a child’s development. We work closely with parents to ensure you are engaged in your child’s journey, sharing updates and celebrating milestones together.
