Why are Monkey Puzzle special? Because our vision is at the centre of everything we do, ‘we inspire change through excellence in childcare, creating a positive impact for generations to come’. This is our purpose as a business and is our north star.
For over 15 years, Monkey Puzzle Day Nurseries has been working closely with parents, staff, and Ofsted to deliver excellence in childcare, providing children with numerous opportunities to learn, develop and grow within a safe, secure, and caring environment.
Every Monkey Puzzle setting is unique and tells its own magical story, highlighting the importance of early years. Whether it’s dedicated outdoor play areas for each age group, sensory rooms or forest schools, our nurseries cater for every child’s individual needs. We have a network of devoted franchisees who are committed to providing quality childcare and early years education. We also strive to provide impactful roles in all of our nursery settings, providing apprenticeships, training and development as well as career pathways. We are committed to making Monkey Puzzle and Early Years aspirational as a career choice.
Monkey Puzzle is the first UK early years provider to partner with Kide Science, allowing us to offer unique opportunities to our nursery children, getting them excited about how the world around them works, understanding that children are active learners by nature. Imaginative Science play from an early age helps children to be inquisitive and to want to ask questions. Our partnership with Kide Science encourages our children to become active producers of knowledge, helping them grow into problem solvers and creative thinkers that can help build a better future for all.
Our aim is for every child to be happy and healthy enabling them to enjoy their early years at Nursery and for parents to have peace of mind that their children are in excellent hands. We want every child to develop, flourish and enjoy the beginning of their educational journey, and this is exactly what our nursery settings offer.
