Cramond Early Learning and Childcare

"The nursery is bright spacious and clean, the staff are all very welcoming and happy to see my child every day. All staff make an effort to know my child and not just the staff that is in their room. Management are always smiling and ready to help with anything I need."

A welcoming and inspiring nursery in Cramond

You and your child will love our bright and spacious Cramond Early Learning and Childcare. Set in the green outskirts of Edinburgh, our creative activities and fun learning environments support your child's development from the age of 3 months to 5 years.

Our purpose-built Cramond nursery has different rooms for each age group, full of exciting resources to spark your child's natural curiosity. The baby room features a range of sensory toys that, along with the guidance of our caring staff, help your little one to start crawling, walking and saying their first words. Toddlers and preschoolers have cosy, dedicated reading nooks in their rooms, along with art corners, indoor apparatus, natural materials for heuristic play and much more.

Outside, children enjoy learning about nature and developing their motor skills and balance on tricycles and climbing frames. We also take the children on regular trips in the local community where they can spot wildlife and learn in natural environments. This includes outings to the park, beach and woodlands.

Our nursery in Cramond is located close to local bus routes, with all-inclusive fees that mean you don't have to worry about bringing any meals, snacks, nappies, wipes or cream. All of our nutritionally-balanced meals are prepared with fresh ingredients by our own skilled chef.

We are a Partner Provider nursery, and we proudly offer afternoon wraparound care to Cramond School nursery.

We would love to meet you and your child, so book a visit with us today and we will show you all our nursery has to offer during your own personal tour.

Fee Calculator

Our calculator enables you to estimate your basic fees BEFORE childcare funding is applied. We’ve taken this approach as funding is dependent on your own very individual situation, how old your child is, where you live, whether you’re working and so on.

Our comprehensive funding guides provide guidance on what funding you’re likely to be eligible for, we can send this to you after you’ve estimated your fees.

When you visit us, we can also help you understand your options and work out what your net fees will be after any childcare funding is taken into account.

Estimate your fees

Oops! We appear to be having a few technical challenges! Our team is working hard to get our fee calculator back up and running soon as soon as possible. Thanks for bearing with us.

In the meantime, if you need some answers or to book a nursery visit, then please call us on 01316038409, our friendly team is here to help.
