About Nature Garden Day Nursery & Forest School
From 2 years old & beyond, Monday to Friday, from 7:30am to 6pm.
Some nurseries prepare children for school. Nature Garden prepares them for life. Set in the heart of Lymm, just a stone's throw from Rosebank Day Nursery, your child's early years here are lived slowly, freely, and deeply connected to the natural world - exactly as childhood should be.
Our Mission
Every day your child arrives at Nature Garden, something new is waiting for them. Meaningful play, outdoor adventure, and a learning environment that moves at their pace - one that respects who they are and where they are in their journey. With the forest as the classroom and nature as co-teacher, your child's curiosity is met with wonder, their confidence grows steadily, and the skills they build here stay with them for life.
The forest school experience here is the real thing - purposeful, child-led, and deeply rooted in nature. Your child learns through open-ended exploration and warm adult guidance, growing into a confident, capable individual who knows how to listen to themselves, to others, and to the world around them.
If your child attends Ravenbank Primary School, the journey with us continues. Our Breakfast Club starts from 7:45 am, and our After School Club offers a nourishing high tea and academic support - so your child's day begins and ends somewhere they already feel at home.
