Welcome to Monkey Puzzle Orpington

Welcome to Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Orpington, located at Rowan House, 64 Sevenoaks Road, Orpington, Kent BR6 9JL. Our nursery is located close to the High Street in the town centre and is only a short walk from Orpington training station, making us perfect for families working in the local area or commuting in and out of London.

Our Orpington nursery provides a nurturing home-from-home environment, for children aged 3 months through to pre-school age. With an emphasis on learning through play, our carefully selected team of practitioners ensure your child is cared for in a safe, secure environment with planned activities to keep them engaged whilst having lots of fun.

We have dedicated rooms for our various age ranges and each room reflects the seven areas of learning, as prescribed in the Early Years Foundation Stage. All of our facilities are designed to be accessible to every child.

We are part of an award-winning nursery group, offering high quality childcare in our specially equipped nursery for children aged three months to five years old.

Adding to this, we tailor our care to suit your child’s age. We achieve this by placing children into the following age categories: babies aged 3 to 12 monthstoddlers aged 12 months to 2 years and toddlers aged between 2 and 3 years old and lastly preschool aged three years plus. Due to our rooms being equipped especially for these ages, we are able to provide that home-from-home feel.

When you ask yourself, what’s the best nursery near me, come and see us as we believe it’s Monkey Puzzle Orpington!

Hello. I’m Arlind and I am the owner of Monkey Puzzle Orpington. My team and I are dedicated to creating an outstanding environment that gives every child the best start in life, caring for and supporting them to play, learn and grow in a space where they can thrive.

❗️Activity Challenge❗️

Last week Amy was set the challenge to create and activity in the garden but that can be easily adapted to set up in a room as well.

What an amazing job she did..!

She used her rest day to create little portable pizza ovens, she also cut out bits so the children could create and bake their own pizza's. (this activity was later done with real foods as well to extend the children's learning).

Celebrating 1 year service for our wonderful Paige, she joined us as SEND support in our pre-school room and has just been amazing!
Supporting both the children and the staff team when needed. She’s always got a smile on her face and has so much love and enthusiasm to share with the children, we would be lost without her.

Congratulations Paige! 🎉
