Meadows nursery

Meadows nursery is the result of a unique partnership involving Sheffield Hallam University, Watercliffe Meadow Primary School, Sheffield City Council and Save the Children UK. The partnership aims to improve outcomes for children in the local area, helping them achieve their potential through research and innovation in early years education and care.

About us

The nursery is believed to be the first of its kind in the country, offering excellent nursery provision for up to 20 two year olds in the North of Sheffield.

Meadows Nursery brings together a range of expertise and resources to ensure your child receives the highest quality nursery care and experience.

The nursery is a happy and caring place, where children have the chance to explore, discover and develop their unique qualities, skills, gifts and talents. Our staff are dedicated to providing the best possible care and education, offering children a ‘home from home’ environment.
