About Us

North Leeds Community Nursery is a registered charity.  Founded by parents in 1979, we now care for up to 50 children between the ages of 3 months and eight years.  In December 2004 we moved into our brand new purpose-built building in the grounds of Beckett Park Primary School, with excellent facilities and two secure outdoor play areas. The nursery provides a safe and happy environment for children to socialise and learn through play.

What is a Community Nursery?

  • A non-profit making organisation - all funds are reinvested into the nursery
  • Run by a management committee made up of parents and carers
  • An opportunity for parents and carers to have a say in how the nursery works on a day to day basis
  • A chance to be a part of a community, to take responsibility for the care of our children and others’

Our Staff

Our nursery staff are NNEB/BTEC/PSLA trained and are chosen and appointed by the parent management committee.  One of our main strengths is that our staff are committed to the nursery and stay with us for many years providing continuity for the children.   Each child in our care has a keyworker with whom you can discuss your child’s individual needs.

Food

Our cook provides freshly prepared food on site. We have fresh fruit every day and healthy, nutritious snacks are given mid morning and teatime.  We provide freshly made baby food and special dietary requirements are catered for. The children learn about healthy eating and enjoy getting involved in food preparation.
