We aim to provide them with a smooth transition from their home life to school life and give them the nurturing and support they need.

Academic

Give your child the best possible start!

Stoke Hill Pre-School & Day Nursery encourages children from across Devon to learn through play and stimulate their minds with a wide range of resources in our play areas. There is a secured nature area, where inquisitive little minds can explore the world around them, and themed role play areas where children can discover new characters and build on their imaginative skills.

Fuelling your child's imagination is especially important and all our children enjoy using our kitchen facilities, learning about nutrition and where their food comes from. We spend lots of time cooking and often the children choose their own recipes of which we use our own home grown produce. Please let us know about any special dietary requirements. We are a Nut, peanut and egg free setting offering a vegetarian menu. If you'd like to arrange a visit, contact our nursery in Exeter today. We welcome children from across Devon.
