The Old Fire Station Nursery is a small nursery situated in the heart of Englefield offering high quality childcare for children from two years all the way to school. The nursery operates from a single story converted Fire Station in the beautiful rural area of West Berkshire.

Outdoor learning and play is embedded deeply into our educational framework with our wonderful spacious garden, as well as our very own mini bus that allows the children to visit various places of interest. Year-round trips to local libraries, farms, parks and woodland areas allow children to go on exciting trips, thrive and learn in the great outdoors.
