Employer Description:Our first nursery, Chiltern Day Nursery opened in October 2002 in Sutton. Chiltern is the epitome of what we stand for as a company, a home from home for the children in our care.
Glaisdale Nursery opened in 2008, and whilst substantially larger than Chiltern it still has the home from home key features that we pride ourselves in.
It is during viewings of our Cheam nursery that it become evident to us that there was a lack of childcare within the Epsom area, that started our search for our third nursery site. When the site of Lynton House Preparatory School in Ewell became available we saw our vision come alive. With its traditional features of the Georgian property along with the large exploratory garden we knew it would make a beautiful nursery.Working Hours :Monday- Friday, with shift patterns between 7.30am and 6.30pm.
