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 childโs 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.

๐จFIRST AID TRAINING๐จ
๐As the childrenโs interests surrounding the emergency services continue to grow, the children wanted to learn more about how to help others and make them feel better!
Sarah F demonstrated to the children the recovery position, explaining when we would use this and why. The children then got to work placing a peer into the recovery position very carefully.
At MPTW, our aim is for our children to consistently grow, develop and engage with active learning on a daily basis. We believe that giving children real life experiences enhances their independence and confidence, and what better way to introduce practical skills than through learning life saving first aid skills!๐ #monkeypuzzlenurserys #tunbridgewells #monkeypuzzle #tunbridgewellsbusiness #monkeypuzzlenursery #tunbridgewellsmums ...

โจ๐ชMagic space๐ชโจ
โจYesterday our discoverers went to Magic Space in the Amelia Scott Library, to explore the varying different pattern and picture projected onto the walls. The children had an amazing time looking at their own shadows, the interactive activities and all the different colours! โจ
๐ชThe toddlers had free reign to explore the area, being able to move around to see the constantly changing patterns and designs. We were very tired after such a lovely, interactive experience with just so much to see! ๐ช
โจThis is an amazing sensory experience and we highly recommend to all families! Especially with their air conditioning on๐โจ

๐งโ๐ณMINI MONKEY CHEF๐งโ๐ณ
As summer is upon us, Emma wanted to make some overnight oats with the children for them to enjoy for breakfast the following morning. During this activitiy the children used their mathematical skills to help Emma to weigh and measure the ingredients. ๐ข
The children helped to scoop the oats, pour the milk and mash the fruit up to create the perfect fruit puree! ๐ซ
See Emmaโs overnight oat recipe below!
1. Add oats into a pot or container. You need enough to create a layer across the bottom of the pot.
2. Add a layer of yoghurt other the top
3. Pour some milk over the top (this can be oat milk too!)
4. Mix all ingredients together
5. Add your favourite toppings! At MPTW we like to keep it healthy by adding fruit๐๐๐๐
6. Place into the fridge overnight and enjoy for breakfast the following morning!
