WELCOME TO CEDAR NURSERY AND AFTERSCHOOL CARE LENZIE

DISCOVER OUR CHILDCARE OPTIONS

We provide a variety of funded and non-funded childcare options to support parents in Lenzie. 

ABOUT US

Cedar Nursery and After School Care has been successfully operating for the past 27 years in the Lenzie area with many families returning year on year. The nursery is located in the heart of Lenzie, behind Lenzie Public Hall, and the After School Care is ran from the Scout Hall at Millersneuk, both less than 5 minutes’ walk from Lenzie Station. Our vision is to create a homely environment where children feel at ease and are at the heart of everything we do.

OUR CURRICULUM

At Cedar Nursery, we promote learning through play, and we use Curriculum for Excellence (Cf E) to support our planning within our 3-5 playrooms. Within our 2-3 room, we follow the Guidance from Pre Birth to Three. Throughout the nursery, we also use:

  • How Good is Our Early Learning and Childcare (HGIOELC)
  • Realising the Ambition (RTA)
  • Getting it Right for Every Child (GIRFEC)

ACTIVITIES

Every week we do different activities but some of our main ones are…

  • Promoting Learning Through Play
  • Encouraging Group Play
  • 1-2-1 Communication

DEDICATED TO QUALITY LEARNING

To support self-evaluation and continuous improvement, we also use a range of Education Scotland and Care Inspectorate Framework documents to ensure that we are reflecting on our practice to support high standards and a quality learning environment.

WHAT OUR PARENTS SAY…

"It was great to have the opportunity to join the children on their Winter Walk. A enjoyed looking out for shapes and matching these to the cards that staff provided. The children were reminded of their road safety before their walk and also really reassuring to hear you have guidance for safety around dogs. It was a really enjoyable session and worth taking an hour out of my working day."

"Thank you all, it was a great wee morning. A just loved it – a great way to include parents and build relationships."

"Thank you all so much for all your amazing care over the last 6 years. I've always felt so relaxed knowing the kids were in safe hands and I can't thank you all enough."

WHAT OUR CHILDREN SAY…

"We love nursery - all of it!"
