Our Nursery

Preston Road Community Nursery was the first Child Dynamix nursery to open, back in 2001. In 2005 we moved into our current home, a purpose-built setting within Little Stars Family Hub. This change allows parents to access our Family Support services on the same site as their children’s nursery, which families find hugely beneficial.

Our purpose-built nursery has three spacious and well-equipped rooms, as well as a large outdoor space. We have a variety of toys, games, activities and events to help your child truly explore in a stimulating environment. Staffed with experienced nursery practitioners, they ensure every child is reaching their full potential, engaging them in activities to help your child learn, grow, and develop. We are proud of the 20+ years of exceptional childcare we have provided for the Preston Road area and we look forward to continuing to help children reach their full potential!

Key Information

Opening Hours

We are open from 8am – 6pm, Monday to Friday, with an option to take up an Early Bird session from 7.30am (for an additional charge). Our morning session is from 8am until 1pm, whilst our afternoon sessions run from 1pm until 6pm.

Free Early Years Education Funding

There are several schemes for free childcare hours which can be taken in our nursery. Some families are eligible for 15 hours free early education funding for 2 year olds, whilst all children aged 3 and 4 are eligible for 15 hours of free provision for 38 weeks of the year. Additionally, working families with children aged between 9 months and 4 years may be eligible for 30 hours free childcare. Please contact us to find out more.

Nursery Facilities

Our nursery has: three rooms, observation areas for parents to watch their children at play, outside garden, laundry, and a professionally equipped kitchen.

Meals

We provide healthy and nutritious meals for all our children and can cater for any food allergies/intolerances. We hold the Healthier Options Award, granted by Hull City Council, for our provision of healthier food choices! We also have a Food Hygiene Rating of 5 out of 5 from the Food Standards Agency.

Curriculum

Our curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage and we use ‘What to Expect When’ as a tool to understand your child’s development. Parents keep up to date with how their child is progressing using our Parenta online system.

Stay and Play

We offer a no obligations 'trial' for our nursery, called 'Stay and Play'. You can, subject to availability, bring your child in for a free session in a nursery to make sure it's a good fit for them. This will also give you the chance to look around and ask our staff any questions you need. Make sure to contact us in advance to organise this.

Uniform

New
We now offer Child Dynamix branded t-shirts and hoodies that can be purchased and worn to the nursery, ensuring children's normal clothing doesn't get mucky. This is totally optional and sold at cost to keep it as affordable as possible for you.

I became inspired to work with children from a young age. Through various volunteering roles, I was able to see how children grow, learn, and develop, which solidified my interest to pursue this as a career. I first started working for Child Dynamix as a Nursery Officer when the Janet Genter Community Nursery (now Preston Road Nursery) opened in 2001. Now with over 28 years’ experience in the childcare industry and charity sector, I have progressed through a variety of roles including Head of Childcare Services, and I now co-lead the Charity.

My role is very varied and includes responsibility for all the charity services, Childcare (including day nurseries, crèches and holidays schemes) Family Hub and Youth services. During my time with Child Dynamix I have successfully completed my BA Degree in Early Years, and hold the Early Years Professional status, and National Professional Qualification in Early Years Leadership. I also hold further qualifications in leadership and management.

I have BA Honours in Religious Studies with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and also Early Years professional Status (EYP). Prior to being a teacher, I worked in various nurseries and holiday clubs. I have 17 years experience as a Nursery Manager, 6 of these managing two sites at the same time. I recently worked as a Safeguarding and Welfare officer for Doncaster Council, before joining Child Dynamix May 2022 as Manager for the Preston Road Nursery. I aim to help children achieve their individual potential in preparation for their school life journey.

I have a BA Honours in Early Childhood Studies and I have worked in childcare for over 20 years now, several of those with Child Dynamix. I really enjoy working with young children, seeing how they grow and develop, and the impact early learning has on their journey in life. I especially get a sense of achievement and pride when a child discovers a new skill or says new word.

My name is Lyndsey and I am a Senior Nursery Practitioner at the Preston Road site. I have worked for Child Dynamix since September 2014. I am currently the 2 year old room lead, but I have experience of all the rooms – having worked in both the baby room and preschool in the past. I also have a degree in Children’s Inter-Professional Studies. I love to spend my free time with my husband, family and friends. The thing I love the most about working with the children is seeing them progress, grow and flourish. I love seeing them achieve something which they had been previously struggling to. It is always sad to see them leave, but to know that I have done the best for them in my care is something I am immensely proud of.
