Choosing a nursery near Oxton is about far more than convenience, and at Calverton Day Nursery we understand that you are looking for a place where your child will be safe, happy and genuinely cared for. We provide warm, full-day childcare for children from around two months to five years old, in a homely village setting just minutes from Oxton.
Based in neighbouring Calverton, we have welcomed families from Oxton and the surrounding Nottinghamshire villages for many years. Local parents choose us because we pair the experience and standards of a well-established provider with the close, personal care that comes from genuinely knowing every child.
Trust is the foundation of good childcare, and we have earned ours over many years of looking after local children. Calverton Day Nursery is registered with Ofsted on the Early Years Register and the Compulsory Childcare Register, and we hold Sun Safe Nurseries accreditation for our responsible approach to outdoor play. We are part of Wolds Childcare, an established Nottinghamshire group with more than two decades of experience in early years education.
For parents, that means real peace of mind. You have the accountability and consistent standards of a respected organisation, together with the friendly, attentive feel of a smaller nursery where your child is never just a number.
