Providing all day childcare for 0-5 year old’s and Holiday club for all Primary school aged Children in Royal Leamington Spa

Our vision

At Puddleducks and POSH, we believe that every child is an individual with potential.

We have a passion for family focussed childcare which is reflected in the ethos of the nursery where children are at the centre of everything we do.

We provide a safe, happy, caring, stimulating and secure environment where everyone feels valued, included, and respected.

We aim to enhance the lives of the children and families we work with, through creating a nursery which feels like home with an extended and supportive environment.

We want every child to reach their full potential and, most importantly, to have fun while doing so!

  • Puddleducks has been a turning point in J's preschool days and your love & affection reflects in his interest to be at school every morning. We are grateful for all the assistance during his time at preschool and would definitely recommend Puddleducks to our friends.

    A & M

  • All of the Ducklings teachers and staff. Thank you for all your patience you have shown and for all the tears you have wiped away. Thank you for all the comfort you have gave to Z and all the planet stories you have told. Thank you for consoling his little heart, and make him feel home in our absence. Thank you for all the dance moves Z has learnt here and teaching him to be kind. Thank you for all thoughtful words you have taught and all the sweet things you do. For being there in place of us, we are grateful....and we'll always be!!!

  • To the whole Puddleducks Team, Thank you so much for you love and care of R during her time at nursery. You came to our rescue during the pandemic and have been wonderful ever since. We are so appreciative of your hard work. We know R has really enjoyed her time at Puddleducks and will miss you all. She will likely be back for POSH Club and A pick-ups, so I'm sure she'll be happy to still see you! You are all amazing!

    Thank you again. E & J

  • I personally would like to thank everyone one of you who has taught & welcomed J into puddleducks, we have both had a great experience and J has come on heaps and bounds in your care. He has made many friendships & speaks highly of his teachers so it will be sad to see him leave but again thank you & we look forward to spending our last remaining weeks with you.

  • Thank you to all of you - especially those in the pre school room - for the kindness and care that you've shown L over the past year. He's really enjoyed being at pre school and I've been so pleased with the level of care, range of activities and professionalism by everyone. He's gone from a shy just -turned- 3 year old who had never been away from his parents to being completely ready for school - so thank you! :) wishing you all the best of luck for the future.

  • We wanted to write to say a huge thank you for care of N during her time in Ducklings. You have given her such a warm and supportive welcome to Puddleducks and joining you has been very positive for her. She is so happy and settled and we really note and appreiate your investment in her. Thank you for setting her up so well - especially in her current move to preschool. Kind regards as ever.

    H and S M

  • Just a quick note to say a HUGE thank you for everything that you have done for both E and S over the years. We are so grateful to everyone there for making nursery such a cosy and safe environment which they've loved. E feels very school ready and can't wait to start at Milverton. The only problem she might face with her transition is that she will miss Puddleducks so much. Sending you all our very best wishes for the future. Thank you

  • Dear Puddleducks Team, I hope this message finds you all well. We wanted to take a moment to express our thanks for the efforts and enriching activities you consistently provide for our children. They both love coming to nursery and clearly thrive whilst there. We’re really appreciative of the additional activities on offer (road safety, Gruffalo trip, Sports Club etc.) and love seeing the updates via the Famly app/Instagram. We feel fortunate to have such a passionate and caring people looking after our children. Thank you once again for your efforts and the positive impact you have on our children. Warm regards,

Termly themes

The children in each unit will engage in their own half termly themes, so they have new and exciting activities to help them learn and develop. For example; Celebrations, People that help us, Things that grow.

Here is a selection of activities that have taken place during March throughout the nursery.

Extra curricular activities

Keir attends the nursery every other Thursday to do singing with the children. He spends time with all age groups to spread his love of music and to encourage children’s language.

The children really enjoy his sessions and look forward to the days he is in.

Mel attends the nursery every other Tuesday to do Bilingua singing with our preschoolers. She has introduced the joy of learning a new language in a fun way.

The children really look forward to Mel’s sessions and are always very engaged with the sessions.

Super star sports visit our Ducklings, Cygnets and Swans twice a week. During the last term they did Superhero sports. This term they will be doing gymnastics.

The children really look forward to sessions with Jake.
