Welcome to Monkey Puzzle Bishops Stortford
Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Bishops Stortford is proudly located in the beautiful town of Bishops Stortford. The nursery is a just short drive from the A120 and the M11, as well as being only a few minutes from Bishops Stortford Train Station, making it perfect for families living in the local area.
We are part of an award-winning nursery group, offering high quality childcare in our specially equipped nursery for children aged three months to five years old.
Adding to this, we tailor our care to suit your child’s age. We achieve this by placing children into the following age categories: babies aged three to fourteen months, toddlers & tweenies aged fourteen months to three years, and lastly preschool aged three to five years. Due to our rooms being equipped especially for these ages, we are able to provide that home-from-home feel.
We’re just around the corner, with lots for you to discover…
- An amazing home from home environment where we guide children’s learning through the Early Years Foundation Stage ensuring they are ready for school
- Daily extra-curricular activities, all included in our fees
- Large, all seasons outdoor play area
- Enthusiastic, caring and highly qualified team with each child self-selecting their dedicated key person
Plus so much more. Get in touch today.
Open 7:30am to 6:30pm Monday to Friday for 51 weeks per year, (closed for the week between Christmas and New Year)
