Edith Rose Nurseries have been providing childcare in Ascot and Windsor for more than 30 years. Both settings are small-scale enabling our team of expert childcare professionals to give their undivided attention to each child to the benefit of their development.
We work towards the Early Years Foundation Stage inspiring the children to learn using their natural curiosity. We treat each child as an individual, using their interests and learning requirements in order to tailor activities and opportunities which will encourage their development while having fun. We equip them with the skills to become confident and independent young people.
