About
Why Purple Jay Nurseries?
Creating Compassionate Innovators
Our approach is “to help nurture children that can innovate and create the life they want in a way that is compassionate to themselves, others around them and the planet”.
“Compassionate Innovators” puts the development of emotional intelligence and creativity/innovation at the very heart of things.
Integrating Nature
Nature is integrated into every one of our Purple Jay Nurseries.
Whether that is through continued investment into our gardens and prioritisation of outdoor play, working harder to ensure more of the children’s activities take nature into account, or working with trusted and vetted external parties to deliver enriching nature based experiences for the children.
Open Communication
Purple Jay Nurseries continues to invest significant time and resources to help ensure our parents have all the information they need, when they need it.
We have multiple open communication channels for parents to utilise and have a dedicated customer care staff member, which, more than anything, demonstrates how important communication is to us.

I am so happy that my daughter is at this nursery.
I am so happy that my daughter is at this nursery. She has been so happy here since day one. Her days are fun filled and I really appreciate the weekly summary of what they got up to. A big positive for me is the huge outdoor space and the team here use it as best as possible. She has made lots of lovely little friends and she is very happy with her teachers too.

The nursery has a really friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
All the children have access to the big garden at different points throughout the day, and they have a wide range of quality and stimulating resources to play with indoors and outside, including a construction area, mud garden and water play area. I’m always amazed at the different activities they do as well. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Purple Jay!

Staff are friendly and have a genuine interest in the children.
Both my daughter and I have had a very positive experience at Purple Jay. The staff are very friendly and have a genuine interest in the children and their well being. Communication is very good, with staff providing answers to my questions soon after I contact them. My daughter is very comfortable approaching all staff members. I would recommend this nursery.
