Hi, I'm Lorraine, the Nursery Manager at Treehouse.

Our nursery is a place full of wonder and inspiration, where natural resources are thoughtfully used to spark children's imaginations. Every day, we encourage our children to be inquisitive and adventurous, helping them build confidence, develop a love of learning, and nurture a curious mind.

Our large outdoor spaces and natural wooden playhouses invite children to connect their imaginations with the world around them, fostering a deep appreciation for nature. Inside, our home-from-home environment has a strong family feel, shaped by the warmth and dedication of our long-serving, experienced team.

We recognise that every child is unique, with their own story to tell. That’s why we tailor learning experiences to each child’s individual needs and pace—ensuring they feel valued, supported, and excited to learn.
