Overview of Our Nurseries

We want every child in Scotland to have the choice to attend an outdoor nursery. Willow Den creates opportunities for this to happen in the heart of communities so that children can play and learn near to where they live, developing a real sense of ‘place.’

Willow Den at Spartans

Our first fully outdoor nursery, Willow Den at Spartans opened in January 2022 welcoming children aged 3 years and not yet at primary school.

FUNDED PLACES AVAILABLE NOW.

Anything you can teach in an indoor classroom can be taught outdoors, often in ways that are more enjoyable for children.”
