Hi, I’m Ayla, the Nursery Manager at The Learning Tree.

At our nursery, we’ve created a warm, nurturing environment where children can thrive from babyhood through to preschool. Every space is thoughtfully designed to support each stage of development, encouraging curiosity, confidence, and a love for learning.

Our beautiful living walls bring the outside in, creating a calming, nature-inspired atmosphere indoors. Outside, our garden offers engaging opportunities for sand and water play, where children collaborate, explore, and learn together through play.

Children enjoy healthy, balanced meals in a central dining space that’s both welcoming and social—building friendships and routines that support their well-being and development.
