Wigwams Nursery

Day nursery

Wigwams Neighbourhood Nursery is  a registered charity and non-profit making. We aim to provide high quality, easy accessible childcare to the local community and the surrounding areas. We are a family friendly nursery and we welcome your interest at any level as we believe this will benefit the nursery and ultimately benefit your child. Wigwams is a purpose built, modern nursery providing full day care for children aged 0-5 years old. We have three well equipped play rooms. A baby room (under twos), toddler room (two year olds) and a pre-school room (three years plus). We are registered to take 78 children. Our biggest strength is our staff team who are passionate and very dedicated to their work. The team are highly qualified and include a manager with Early Years Professional Status.Our recent ofsted inspection in 2013 graded us Outstanding in all areas of learning and development. The Nursery is part of the Bows and Arrows Group which owns 4 other Nurseries across Ipswich. The Group was rated Educational Setting of the Year 2015 in the Suffolk County Council Raising the Bar Awards. From September 2017 we will be offering 30 hours funding for eligible 3 & 4 year olds. Please ask at nursery for more information.
