Alfreton nursery opens stunning new baby room
Partou Field View Day Nursery and Pre-School in Alfreton has undergone a major £100,000 refurbishment including a total revamp of its baby room, creating an additional 14 spaces.
The upgrade follows the completion of significant improvement works in the baby garden late last year totalling £15,000.
In the coming weeks, an additional £55,000 will be invested on a complete overhaul of the entire garden area to further enhance the outdoor enjoyment of children of all ages.
Located on the A61 between Clay Cross and Morton, Partou Field View provides high-quality early years childcare and education for families in Stretton, Alfreton, Clay Cross and surrounding areas.
Set in a converted property with open plan rooms for children to grow and develop, the nursery also features two all-weather play areas, an outdoor classroom and a greenhouse.
Lynette Wheatley, Partou Field View Nursery Manager, said:
“We are really excited by the results of the refurbishment.
“The stunning new baby room is spacious, airy and packed with age-appropriate resources to stimulate development.
“The renovated baby garden is equally impressive and provides the perfect environment for our youngest children to explore, build physical confidence and enjoy the fresh air, particularly with summer on the horizon.
“At Partou Field View, all early years learning activities across the nursery are carefully planned to be stimulating and engaging, tailored to each child’s individual interests and stage of development.
“We are proud of what we do and the improvements to the setting will enable us to deliver an even better learning experience for all the children in our care.”
Samantha Rhodes, Partou Managing Director, said:
“We are thrilled by the completed works which form part of an ambitious refurbishment programme involving numerous Partou settings.
“The vastly experienced team at Partou Field View have a fantastic reputation for really getting to know the children from the moment they arrive at the nursery and working in close partnership with families to get the small details right. Indeed, many return with younger siblings and say they could not imagine their children being anywhere else.
“The new facilities will undoubtedly make the overall experience for children and families even more rewarding.”
Part of the biggest childcare group in the Netherlands, Partou operates more than 100 settings in the UK that collectively care for around 9,000 children and employ more than 2,000 dedicated professionals, including over 240 apprentices.
