Welcome to Monkey Puzzle Tunbridge Wells

Monkey Puzzle Tunbridge Wells is located at 32-34, St Johns Road, Tunbridge Wells. Our nursery is close to the A26 and only a short drive from Tunbridge Wells train station, making us perfect for families working in the local area or commuting to the town centre.

Our friendly and supportive management and team provide a family feel and a home from home approach to childcare focusing on lots of love, nurture and care as priorities alongside our child centred curriculum.

We are proud of creating lots of bright, beautiful and exciting spaces for the children to play and explore providing the highest quality childcare to children aged from 3 months to 5 years.

We take great pride in being part of the vibrant town of Tunbridge Wells and are looking forward to extending and creating further links within the local community with Primary schools and additional services to further support our families with local exciting opportunities.

We are part of an award-winning nursery group, offering high quality childcare in our specially equipped nursery for children aged three months to five years old.

Adding to this, we tailor our care to suit your child’s age. We achieve this by placing children into the following age categories: babies aged three to twelve months, toddlers from 12 to 24 months & toddlers aged 24 months to 36 months, and lastly preschool aged three to five years. Due to our rooms being equipped especially for these ages, we are able to provide that home-from-home feel.

We are very lucky to have extensive outdoor spaces in the nursery and a separate area for both babies and the older children to play and explore. Our outdoor environment offers a rich multi-sensory environment that is full of fun, stimulating and motivating activities for the children and we have specifically created indoor garden areas so all the children are able to enjoy the outdoors all year round.

Hello. I’m Arlind and I am the Owner of Monkey Puzzle Tunbridge Wells. My team and I are dedicated to and passionate about giving every child the best start in life by caring for and supporting them to play, learn and grow in a positive and stimulating environment.

I would love to welcome and show you around our beautiful nursery setting so please get in touch.

At at a recent team meeting, we explored the curiosity approach and how we can use open ended resources to support children’s creativity and imagination.🔮

We set out some resources in the middle of the room, split the team into smaller teams, and set the timer for 7 minutes. In this time, the team had to collect 3-6 resources, decide what activity they would like to create, how they can make this suitable for babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers and what learning intention is behind this activity.🧠

We think the teams did amazing, what do you think? 😍

🍂Nature walk🍂

Today some of our inventors went for a lovely nature walk with the aim of finding lots of leaves and twigs! We started off walking to our local park, hunting and seeing how many leaves we could find. We also saw a bug hotel which was super exciting🐞🐛🐜

After listening to a story, we decided to head off and look for some different types of leaves and look at the size of the ones we found!🤩

🪔Celebrating Diwali🪔

Across the Nursery, we have celebrated Diwali through varying activities. The investigators room have created their own henna and have designed their own patterns onto paper. The children learned that we use henna at Diwali to symbolize good luck, health, positive energy, and to express joy during the festival. Henna helps us to celebrate the Festival of Lights.🕯️🪔

🎃Autumn pictures🎃

Today we popped into our friends at Stampede and took some of our lovely pumpkin pictures we had made! It made us so happy when they said they will put them in the shop window! 😊

We had a little play in the playhouse and then listened to a story, clocking all the minutes for our sponsored listen this week! We had such a lovely time out, looking at all the Autumn decorations in the shops, looking at all the leaves on the floor and our favourite part….waving to everybody going by! 👋
