Rocking Horse Nursery

The Rocking Horse Nursery at Newbury Racecourse is one of town's most established childcare facilities. In 2015 we opened a brand new purpose build facility.

The Rocking Horse Nursery is a well established Day Nursery club set in the beautiful and unique Newbury Racecourse Estate. Children are welcomed at the Rocking Horse from birth to school age. We have created a loving, nurturing and fun environment which sees all our children flourish. We moved into our brand new purpose built facility in 2015. The rooms are spacious and all have direct access int

o the children's gardens. We would love to show you round the nursery. Call Mel or Richard, our management team, on 01635 48969 and they will be very happy to have a chat with you and make an appointment.

It’s always bittersweet when we say goodbye to members of our nursery family. This week, we’re waving a fond farewell to Zoe and Mila, who are off on a new adventure as they move to Portugal — their dad’s home country.

We’ll miss their bright smiles, giggles, and the joy they brought to our nursery each day. It’s been a privilege to watch them grow, and we know they’ll thrive in their new surroundings.

Wishing the whole family lots of happiness and sunshine in this exciting new chapter. Obrigado and Boa sorte!

A trip from our local dental nurse this morning! The children enjoyed an interactive session learning about the importance of dental care and hygiene. Each of the children will go home tonight with a sticker, some toothpaste and a toothbrushing chart 🪥😁

Thank you Newbury Orthodontic Centre

We just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who came to our family fun day today, even with the weather being extremely hot we all managed to have a fantastic morning! We hope you all enjoyed the activities and of course a glass of pimms. Unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to take many pictures but here are a couple we managed, please feel free to send us any you may have taken. We will count all the money raised from the day and let you know the total going to Swings & Smiles on Monday have a fantastic rest of your weekend..
