The best of both worlds

Welcome to Footprints Home Nursery. We are a small, family run provision in Acomb that delivers the professional high quality learning experience of a nursery - within a caring, tailor made domestic setting.

Footprints is managed by husband and wife team Rhiannon and Pete Hale - who have been Qualified teachers and Senior leaders in schools for over 13 years.

The idea for a 'home nursery' came when looking for childcare for our own children. We wanted the highly qualified staff, facilities and learning that would normally be associated with a nursery, but the idea of leaving our tiny darlings in such large settings seemed like such a big step.

We'd love you to see what we think represents an ideal compromise. Take a look around our website and get in touch if you have any questions at all, we would love to talk to you!

Visiting (by appointment of course) is very much encouraged!
