Doves Nurseries – The little nurseries with big hearts

NATURE

Outdoor learning is a big part of life across all our nurseries, with secure, well-maintained gardens that act as extensions of the classroom.

NUTRITION

Children enjoy home‑cooked meals, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, with plenty of chances to get involved in simple food prep and cooking.

NURTURE

We focus on calm routines, warm relationships and rich play experiences that help children feel secure, confident and ready to explore.

At Doves Nurseries, we’re proud to offer flexible early years provision across our three Northamptonshire settings. From part‑time and full‑time places to split‑day options, there are options to suit every family. Each of our Northamptonshire locations has its own unique character, but they’re all built on the same foundations: warmth, care, curiosity, and a whole lot of love. Whether you’re looking for a cosy baby room or a bright and spacious toddler environment, our settings provide safe spaces to explore, grow, and make memories ~ take a look at our nursery locations to see which one suits your family best.

BABIES

We create calm, cosy spaces for the youngest members of our nursery family, keeping ratios low to provide the 1‑1 attention, comfort and connection they need. The rooms are designed to nurture and support early physical and emotional development.

TODDLERS

This group thrives on sensory play, heuristic exploration and gentle physical activities. We provide lots of opportunities for them to follow their natural curiosity, with resources set at child height to encourage independence.

PRE-SCHOOL

The eldest in our nursery family, we encourage creativity and early problem solving. With access to a wide range of resources, they grow in confidence and curiosity as they prepare for school.
