Welcome to the Waterfront Nursery
As our name suggests, we are situated near Granton’s waterfront, overlooking the Firth of Forth. Our staff have been providing quality childcare for over ten years.
We aim to give the best value childcare for your family. Our fees include a two course, nutritious hot lunch and morning and afternoon snacks for children attending for the full day. Children attending for the morning session receive a morning snack and lunch and children attending afternoon sessions receive an afternoon snack. We are open from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday for 50 weeks of the year.
As a parent of the Waterfront Nursery you will have access to an individual online learning journal for your child. Children under two will receive daily sheets which detail sleep, food and nappies for the day. Older children will receive this information as part of a verbal handover and details of lunches will be available on the lunch board for pre-schoolers.
We provide support for children with additional support needs. Please feel free to contact us to discuss your child’s needs and how we can help. We regularly work with many external agencies and other professionals as part of the Getting It Right for Every Child (GIRFEC) approach.
To contact us you can email the nursery or phone the nursery on 0131 297 8800.
