Welcome to Monkey Puzzle

We are part of an award-winning nursery group, offering high quality childcare in our specially equipped nursery for children aged three months to five years old.

Adding to this, we tailor our care to suit your child’s age. We achieve this by placing children into the following age categories: babies aged three to fourteen months, toddlers & tweenies aged fourteen months to three years, and lastly preschool aged three to five years. Due to our rooms being equipped especially for these ages, we are able to provide that home-from-home feel.

A HUGE congratulations to Nazifa and Dior for being Employee of The Month in March and April!

We asked our team to vote for who they think deserved the win in April and Nazifa came out on top!

Our March decision was made by staff submitting a tuff tray activity to management as well as the children’s enjoyment and Dior was our winner. She made an attic tuff tray using foam, ice and the attic animals. The children helped Dior to set up the activity and then had great fun getting messy when it came to playing.

Well done to both Nazifa and Dior, you are superstars 🤩
