Carousel Day Nursery Billericay | Essex Nursery & Pre-School

Early Learning for a Brighter Future

At Carousel Day Nursery & Pre-school our ethos is to inspire in children a lifelong love of learning, through exciting discovery, which will prepare them for future education and beyond.

Welcome to Carousel

A child’s first five years form the foundation of their lives, and at Carousel we deliver an excellent standard of education and care that ensures all children are given the building blocks they need to thrive in the future.

At our last Ofsted inspection in October 2022 we were judged to be OUTSTANDING. You can read the full report here.

Young children need to receive warm and loving care, and we pride ourselves on the friendly and dedicated team of practitioners who deliver this. They have a wealth of knowledge about caring for young children, and many bring years of experience to the task of creating happy learners at Carousel.

All children are unique and develop at different rates. We cater to each individual child’s needs as dictated by their personality, their learning and development stage and any special educational needs they may have.

Our daughter has been at Carousel Day Nursery & Pre-School for around 18 months now and we’re very pleased with the nursery, facilities and her overall development. All the staff are fantastic and take great care of her. She’s excited every morning when we drop her off and it’s very comforting to know she’s in good hands. Communication is excellent through the WhatsApp group and we enjoy seeing her pictures on FB each day to see what activities she’s been involved in. We had our second child recently and given our positive experience overall, we have also enrolled him to start in September. Thank you to all the Carousel staff.

I’ve tried a few nurseries and Carousel Day Nursery is excellent. Lovely team equipped with knowledge and certifications in childcare and development. I was informed about my son’s daily progress. Children engage in various activities to develop their reading skills and art skills. Very low staff turnover which means that kids grow with the same teacher around. I think that is great. It feels like a family.

All the staff have given our son lots of care and attention. He always cannot wait to attend nursery. The food is all home cooked. All the staff have gone the extra mile for our son. I cannot fault the communication, a WhatsApp group was set up between me, my wife and the nursery for individual updates.

Can happily say that my daughter has been attending Carousel Day Nursery & Pre-School for one and a half years since she was 1 year old. All the staff have been absolutely fantastic and she loves going and playing with all her friends. Every day, photos and videos are shared on the parent's only Facebook which shows her learning through play.

Carousel Day Nursery & Pre-School has recently been graded Outstanding by Ofsted. As a parent, I would also rate the nursery as outstanding. My child enjoys attending nursery and looks forward to going every week. The communication from my child's key worker is excellent and I know exactly how my child is getting on at nursery. I would definitely recommend Carousel Nursery to anyone who is looking for a safe childcare provision in the area.

A truly lovely nursery. All the staff are so warm and welcoming - our little boy loves going. He has come on so much since he started and learns so much every day! The food is lovely and the team are really good at staying in contact. I check up on him every day and always get a quick update on how he is. Would really recommend!

I couldn't be happier with the care my daughter receives at Carousel. From the moment we enrolled her, it's been nothing short of exceptional. The staff are incredibly professional and friendly, always going above and beyond to ensure she feels safe and valued. The curriculum is engaging and well-rounded, fostering creativity, learning, and development in such a nurturing way. I highly recommend to any parent looking for top-tier care and a fantastic learning environment.
