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 warm, friendly nursery where all the staff know my child. We get regular updates via the app and love the fun themed days and extra activities like football and science. The transition between rooms was well supported. Great location and lovely team.
