St George's Nursery, Edinburgh

Our Private Nursery School: Little steps forward

First experiences in an educational environment are so important. That’s why we take great pride in our exceptional Nursery, which provides the ideal preschool environment for very young children to embark on their educational journey.

Our team of dedicated and well-qualified teachers and practitioners take the time and care to make every moment count.

Learning through play is central to our educational philosophy of early childhood education. We create engaging spaces filled with unique objects, designed to promote exploration, curiosity, and imaginative play.

Our children benefit from a balance of planned and spontaneous activities, both indoors and outdoors, and receive specialist activities such as Ballet and Rugby tots, Music, and PE lessons taught by our experienced teachers who become familiar faces for our students as they move into the Junior School.

Located in a green and quiet area of Edinburgh, within a dedicated building over two floors, our preschool Nursery boasts impressive outdoor play areas, a fantastical forest outdoor learning area, and secret garden areas, providing ample space for little explorers and adventurers to find their feet.

Our eco-friendly pre-school promotes sustainability, eco-consciousness and environmental awareness.
