About Our Nursery
Our Approach
At Kiddi Caru Coronation Road, we follow a play-based, child-centred Early Years curriculum that supports each stage of development from babies to preschoolers. Children explore through programmes such as Health & Self, Innovate & Investigate, Move & Groove, Make & Bake and Sow & Grow, helping them build confidence, creativity and a love of learning in a nurturing environment.
Our Location
Located at 3A Coronation Road, Downend, Bristol, BS16 5SN, our nursery enjoys a peaceful setting in South Gloucestershire while remaining well-connected with transport links to Staple Hill, Mangotsfield, Emersons Green and beyond.
Our Team
Our passionate and experienced team are committed to providing high‑quality early years education. With Level 3 qualified practitioners trained in safeguarding, paediatric first aid and food hygiene, we deliver attentive, nurturing care tailored to every child’s needs.
Facilities
The nursery offers age‑appropriate indoor playrooms with cosy, home‑like spaces and a range of stimulating resources. Children benefit from three outdoor garden areas with play kitchens, water play, sand trays and growing benches that support imaginative play and outdoor exploration.
Activities
Children take part in a variety of enriching experiences, including physical activities such as yoga and sports, creative play, sensory learning and regular themed sessions that support physical, social and emotional development.
Community Outings
Regular outings help children engage with the local environment, from walks to parks to visits to the library, encouraging confidence, curiosity and connection with their wider community.
Parent Partnerships
Families stay informed through a nursery app with daily updates on meals, activities and progress. We also host events such as parents’ evenings and seasonal celebrations to strengthen home‑nursery connections.
