Curious Explorers is a registered Ofsted nursery setting based in Bromstone school on the outskirts of Broadstairs.

At Curious Explorers, we know that every child is unique. Our aim is to provide a happy, caring and stimulating environment where children feel secure, valued and excited to learn.

Our home-from-home approach means children can settle in at their own pace, build strong relationships with our team and develop the confidence to explore the world around them.

Welcome to Curious Explorers

Hello, I’m Lucy, the owner of Curious Explorers, and I would like to personally welcome you to our preschool.

Curious Explorers has been a very special part of my life for many years. I first joined the preschool in 2000 when I began my Early Years training and, in 2005, I was fortunate enough to take over the ownership. Since then, I have watched many children grow, learn and flourish, and have had the privilege of welcoming lots of families through our doors.

I have always wanted Curious Explorers to feel like a home from home – somewhere children feel safe, happy, loved and comfortable being themselves. We are a close and caring team, and we take the time to get to know every child and their family individually.

We believe childhood should be filled with fun, friendship, curiosity and plenty of opportunities to explore. Our children are encouraged to learn through play, develop their confidence and independence, and most importantly, enjoy their time with us.

Choosing a preschool is a big decision, and we want parents to feel just as welcome and comfortable as their children. Our door is always open, and we are proud of the warm little community we have created together.

We look forward to welcoming you and your little explorer to the Curious Explorers family.

Lucy

My Daughter Loves The Nursery

My daughter loves the nursery and loves her aunties. You look after her so well with so much love. My mind is at ease every time she goes and I don't worry at all.

We Couldn't Be More Grateful

Thank you so much for all the help and support you have given Skylar. You have all been amazing with her, kind, loving, caring and patient.

As Skylar has gained so much more confidence since being here. She has loved coming to the nursery every day. And although she can't say verbally, she told us with smiles, gestures, signs and odd few words about her day.

We couldn't be more grateful. Thank you.
