Snapdragons Nurseries have been leading the way in early years education since opening our first nursery and pre-school in 1998. We offer the security of experience combined with a progressive mindset that drives innovation and expansion. With 450 employees and 1250 childcare places, we are one of the leading providers in the South West, with ten nurseries in Bath, Bristol and Wiltshire.
Still owned by the founding family, we now have ten nurseries having grown organically and sustainably through our success in meeting the needs of families. Our nurseries reflect our passionate belief that all children have a right to inspiring environments that stimulate curiosity, awe and wonder.
Healthy food, children's cooking, outdoor learning, in the moment teaching and secure attachments with key families enable our children to thrive and fulfil their true potential in the wider world.
Our caring teams range from qualified teachers to new apprentices, all encouraged to explore training and career development from our in-house training team and external qualification opportunities for real progression.
