Nurture Barn

General information

This idea started in Winter 2012. Other than our regular baby groups, in particular our local NCT ones, which were a lifeline for meeting friends for me and her, and which I still volunteer for, there was nowhere else I really wanted to take my baby daughter Olivia, especially in bad weather.

I wanted to have a good coffee and a healthy lunch in a clean environment with friends without worrying she would annoy people, running around. I wanted to go to places on my own, not feeling awkward. I wanted to do classes without signing up for terms or half term payment plans. I wanted a calm, and if I am honest 'posher' place with good toys, which you only find at the best nurseries, that I couldn't afford. But it seemed a shame that parents were never allowed to experience those brilliant experiences with them and often mum and dad were at work.

So here it is The Nurture Barn - hopefully, through experience, the best kids' playroom, that they, nor you will ever want to leave.

No bookings required - open 6 days a week - Mon-Sat.
You can even rent it out for parties if you want at £12 a head weekends and £10 on weekdays.

I want to see dads there, grandparents there and a mixture of ages, all playing with wood and natural materials, inside and outside, simply using their imagination. I want non flustered guests who don't worry about their offspring running off = as we are all in it together.

Cost is £1 for under 6 months, £3.50 for 6 months to 2 years and £5 for 2 years - 5 years.
And on a Saturday, Sunday and Monday it is just £2.50 all day. After 2pm, every day Cake and Coffee is £3.50.
