About Rocking Horse Nursery

About us, Rocking Horse Nursery.

Established in 1992, the Rocking Horse Nursery moved into a modern, purpose-built facility – at the heart of Newbury Racecourse – in 2015.

This bright and airy new facility was planned meticulously to create an environment designed to meet the modern demands of childhood.

Rocking Horse Nursery boats larger-than-average indoor room settings – for babies up to children aged four – and secure outdoor gardens, while the vast Newbury Racecourse estate is just a stone’s throw away meaning the opportunity for countryside walks and activities out in the fresh air are endless.

Our spaces have been designed with an emphasis on natural and authentic resources to capture your child’s interest.

With extensive experience in nurturing the early development of children, our vision is a simple one – to provide the highest possible quality of care for those children who are entrusted to us.

Skilled dedicated staff with years of experience at The Rocking Horse Nursery

We believe trained staff are happy and motivated and we’re pleased to boast almost no staff turnover, meaning consistent care for your little ones.

All our staff are qualified first aiders, fully trained in safeguarding & protecting children and have Level 2 certifications in food safety.

Our fees are highly competitive and represent great value for money given the quality of our modern facilities and the thoroughness and detail of our care.

With parents working as partners, you can help shape your child’s care.
