Open Doors Days at WildNest in Laurencekirk
We're planning an Open Doors event — a chance to visit the nest, meet us, and see the space for yourself. Pop your details below and we'll let you know as soon as we have a date.
Wildnest Nursery
More than a nursery — a second home for your child, and part of the village it takes to raise them.
Wildnest is the nursery we wished we'd had: small, nurturing, unhurried and kind, with plenty of creative play and every child known and loved for who they are.
More than a nursery, in practice
Four commitments that shape every day at Wildnest — to your child, your family and our team.
We start with nurture. Relationships come first, guided by our six nurture principles. We weave nurture into everyday life.
We work around family life. We focus on finding solutions that work for you, wherever we can.
We're more than a nursery. Opportunities to connect beyond the nursery day, with weekend experiences, evening and baby groups.
We share what we build. Our success is shared with the team who help create it, and invested back into our nursery community.
Our Six Nurture Principles
Everything we do is guided by six simple ideas about how children learn and grow:
Children`s learning is understood developmentally
The environment offers a safe base, so we make ours calm, natural and inviting.
All behaviour is communication, and we respond with patience and curiosity
Language is a vital means of communication
Nurture is important for developing wellbeing and self-esteem
Transitions are important in children`s lives
