Burnside House Nursery

Exploring Our Burnside House Nursery

In 2004 saw the renovation of the former Burnside Children’s Home in Irvine to provide a flexible 140 place facility at Burnside House Nursery. The Nursery offers possibly the most spacious and flexible nursery in the central belt. This nursery replaces our original Irvine nursery, which closed in early 2002.

Burnside House Nursery is on Kilwinning Road in a large Victorian Mansion House with extensive parking and a fantastic outdoor play space. The outdoor space is used by all age groups and allows the children to explore the natural environment and the wonders of nature. We encourage the children to take the indoors out, we believe children should have as many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors and learning experiences should be as valuable as indoor learning.

Meals and snacks, including hot lunches, are provided.
