Willow Cottage Nursery Schools

Willow Cottage Nursery offers high quality childcare across Oxfordshire. They have three nurseries spread out across Oxfordshire in Eynsham, Farmoor, and Bletchingdon.

Recruiting passionate childcare professionals and educators to deliver the highest quality education and childcare

Willow Cottage Nurseries offer an excellent learning environment for anyone wishing to further their career in Early Years.

We partner with the nursery to provide the Early Years Educator and Early Years Practitioner apprenticeships.

"We have found apprenticeships to be a fantastic way to develop practitioners who really understand our values and pedagogy. Many of our apprentices have stayed on to complete their Level 3 training and have taken permanent positions within the company."

Apprentice Success

Alice joined Willow Cottage Nurseries in September 2022 as a Level 3 Early Years Educator Apprentice.

After impressing her colleagues, Alice was nominated for the College's Apprentice of the Month award, winning the May 2023 category.

"From my first day on my apprenticeship, it has just felt like it fits. I really like it here at the Nursery and it is perfect for me."
