The Nursery
Big Bird Nursery
Big Bird Nursery,
Larkhall

Our Larkhall Nursery was established in 1998 and came under the wing of Big Bird in 2004. Since then, we have achieved the Scottish Independent Nurseries Association Quality Assurance and become a recognised student training centre with our own assessors. Big Bird not only complies with but exceeds the standards laid down by Environmental Health, Fire Regulations and the provision for full day group care.

Our open door policy allows parents to regularly meet the nursery management team and discuss their childs progress. We pride ourselves on our safe, secure play area and garden and enjoy many outings in the Big Bird mini-bus to local attractions.

Our Philosophy


Big Bird Nursery believes that every child is special, an individual, with their own needs and interests, likes and dislikes, we at the nursery will endeavour to explore their aptitudes and offer appropriate activities which will encourage them to attain their level of achievement.  We achieve this through careful planning of daily activities, using a variety of materials, musical instruments, dressing up games and all forms of imaginative play in a setting which will encourage the emotional, social, physical, creative and intellectual development of each child.

We provide a safe, secure, stimulating enviroment for the children in our care.  Complying with the needs, wishes and involvement of both the child and the parents, the co-operation of the staff, ensures this is achieved. 


The nursery has a safe enclosed outdoor play area covered in impact absorbing surface to make play both safe and fun.   There is a separate garden area where they can grow flowers and vegetables.  The care and welfare of our garden pets is part of the children's learning experience.
