Children learn through imaginative play in our carefully curated learning spaces such as our marketplace role-play area.
Our family feel creates a warm and nurturing space where children feel safe, valued, and inspired. Using natural resources, we spark curiosity and a love for learning.
We're proud of the diverse community we live in and celebrate a variety of cultural festivals with our children and families.
I have worked at Children 1st for 25 years, starting my journey as a Nursery Nurse in our Under 2’s units and then working up to Nursery Manager. I am extremely grateful and passionate about my role within our nursery, as I am able to guide and experience the growth of not only our team but also the children.
As a mum of two, I find my passions are shared between my work life and home life, as they revolve around the care and development of children. Being at Children 1st for 25 years, I have watched my children grow within the nursery, having attended Children 1st from 3 months old to their next chapter at school. I love Children 1st Sheffield because I feel we are not only a team, but a family. I see my team build relationships with colleagues and children, and use this to inspire, guide and care for them throughout their nursery time. I see children grow from the positive impact nursery life has to a child and can see how our nursery family have achieved this through hard work and aspiration.
I would be delighted to meet you and your family for a nursery tour and show you what makes Sheffield Children 1st such a special place.
Children enjoy engaging cookery sessions, exploring ingredients and developing skills through hands-on fun. They also become curious about where food comes from, with opportunities to learn about growing ingredients, fostering a love for food.
Our bespoke food menus cater to various dietary requirements, ensuring every child can enjoy nutritious meals. With a wide range of meal options, we provide a diverse and inclusive dining experience that encourages healthy eating and introduces new flavors.
Our onsite chef prepares nutritious, delicious meals using locally sourced ingredients where possible. We introduce children to a variety of flavors, sparking curiosity, encouraging healthy eating habits, and fostering an appreciation for good nutrition from an early age.
We believe in the power of kindness and the importance of giving back. We’re always looking for ways to support good causes and get involved in our community, helping to make a positive impact where it’s needed most.
Throughout the year, we’ll be organising a range of fun and meaningful fundraising activities, from bake sales and dress-up days to sponsored challenges and community events. It’s a great way for our children, families, and team to come together, have fun, and make a real difference.
Amidst all that learning, there’s plenty of time for play with games, creative activities and outdoor fun.
If children prefer some time away from the hustle and bustle, our quiet area is equipped with reading books and spaces to complete homework.
Whether it’s breakfast to start the day or a hearty meal after school, all of our nutritious food is freshly prepared daily.
