Parents increasingly seek alternatives to traditional childcare models. Muddy Boots has built a proven track record, with numerous families entrusting their children to its care since its founding. This sustained demand demonstrates parent confidence in nature-led approaches to early years education, validating the importance of the Wilberfoss expansion.
The Wilberfoss setting embodies a 'curiosity approach to childcare' that places outdoor adventures at the centre of daily learning. Children have direct access to garden spaces where they experiment and develop confidence through real-world experiences. This philosophy reflects the belief that young learners thrive when they connect with nature, get muddy, and investigate the world through hands-on activities rather than structured indoor sessions alone.
Operating Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, with closures on Bank Holidays and one week at Christmas, the nursery accommodates working parents' schedules. Staff use the Famly App to provide daily updates on meals, sleep, and activities, enabling families to stay connected throughout the day. This communication system supports the 'home-from-home' ethos by maintaining transparency and keeping parents informed about their child's experiences.
Recent parent feedback has given the Wilberfoss nursery a review score of 8.7 out of 10. Families highlight the strong relationships staff build with children and the meaningful outdoor learning opportunities. The setting operates according to core values—Heart, Excellence, Growth, Teamwork, and Responsibility—that guide daily practice and shape the quality of care delivered.
Families interested in learning whether the Wilberfoss setting aligns with their childcare needs can begin by booking a showround. The process welcomes expectant parents, new parents, and those returning to work at any stage, without requiring confirmed return-to-work dates or schedules. Staff walk families through the approach, answer questions, and provide a relaxed introduction to the nursery environment.
