Edzell is a well-established, small, and friendly nursery that provides children with a happy, safe, and nurturing environment. We work in partnership with The City of Edinburgh Council and operate during term time. Our experienced staff understand the individual needs of each child and places paramount importance on meeting those needs. With an open-plan indoor hall and a lovely outdoor garden space, we provide rich learning opportunities, through a combination of free and structured play experiences, allowing children to move easily between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
We are currently transitioning to a Montessori pedagogy, which emphasises hands-on learning and encourages independence. We strongly emphasise outdoor activities, as we believe nature provides a wonderful environment for children's exploration and development.
We also value the involvement of families, encouraging active participation and collaboration between parents and our staff. We create a supportive and enriching environment for every child to thrive and grow by fostering a strong partnership between the home and the setting.
