A Schoolhouse Nursery

Swansea

Singleton Day Nursery offers a tranquil and nurturing environment, where children can thrive amidst picturesque views that stretch all the way to the beach. The dedicated team fosters a love for the outdoors, encouraging children to immerse themselves in nature and spark their curiosity for discovery.

Building long-term relationships with families is essential, even if it’s bittersweet when they grow up! We pride ourselves on welcoming new families and nurturing children from infancy to our Playscheme.

Indoor area for Toddler’s

We’re housed in a local authority building with a beautiful atmosphere, having formerly been a primary school at the heart of the local community. As you enter you’ll be drawn by our natural colours, plants and earthy tones. Our play areas are thoughtfully designed to cater to the love of play that Toddlers and Preschoolers naturally possess. We have defined play spaces that encourage exploration, creativity, and learning through play.

Under 2’s area

Our open plan Under 2’s room provides a rich sensorial experience, designed to stimulate young minds through a variety of special learning opportunities. Our youngest children benefit from large and airy play rooms with a wide range of inspiring play adventures. We incorporate natural materials and treasure baskets to encourage exploration and sensory development.

Outdoor space

Our outdoor space offers a wealth of opportunities for children to engage in a variety of activities, ensuring they are never short of options! The large enclosed, play area features partial safety flooring and provides beautiful views of Singleton park and the beach, creating a picturesque backdrop for playtime.

Children can enjoy summer picnics and can indulge in creative, messy and sensory play. Daily outdoor play allow them to explore, imagine, create and be physically active. We have a dinosaur pit, mud kitchen and sand area with diggers, all designed to stimulate curiosity and sense of adventure. Additionally, our close proximity to the park means that children frequently go on woodland walks and nature trails – it’s not uncommon for scurrying squirrels to join us as we play!

Parents say…

Dear Heledd and Lauren & everyone else in the Under 2’s Team at Singleton,- Thank’s so much! You’ve done so much for Eric since he started in August. He’s come on so much and is such a happy and confident boy. A lot of that is down to you all, you’re amazing!

Emma, Stephen, Ned & Eric

The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. We appreciate the regular updates via the app, especially the photos of activities like painting, playing outside, and reading. The observation updates are helpful for tracking Trystan’s skill development, which we can support at home.

We’ve noticed significant improvements in Trystan’s independence, such as using cutlery, dressing himself, and socialising with other children since joining Singleton Day Nursery.

We also love the celebration of national days like National Pet Day and St. David’s Day.

Charlie James, Parent of Trystan

To all of the amazing girls at Princess of Wales, Schoolhouse. I can’t believe I’m actually writing this. For over two years you’ve looked after my little boy, you’ve helped him grow, helped him learn and given him so much confidence. He seemed so small when I first dropped him with you for his very first day. I remember it so well, you were the first group to watch over my baby as he hadn’t left my side until then. I can remember how nervous I was leaving him…but now I can see it was the best thing I could do for him. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my tiny baby become such a cheeky little boy that he is now. I’m sorry he has eaten sooo much food, but he loves all your meals (please send me some recipes) As William grows older and starts his next chapter we will never forget everything you’ve done for William. Thank you so much- William always wishes Maddy, Lauren and Cody sweet dreams at bed time!

Emma & Tom Moore (and William too!)
