Oasis Nursery
Our Ofsted-registered nursery is located in the heart of Cobham in the community-run Cedar Centre. We offer both government-funded places and self-funded places for up to 30 hours a week.
Highly qualified, experienced and nurturing nursery team
Run by highly qualified, experienced and friendly staff, the Oasis nursery provides a range of inclusive, nurturing and fun activities, following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) statutory framework. The team have attained additional qualifications in children’s emotional development, special educational needs and inclusivity, as well as Levels 1 & 2 of the Makaton programme which helps support and develop the children’s communication and language skills.
Indoor and outdoor learning environment
We offer an inclusive indoor and outdoor learning environment to stimulate and excite the children’s curiosity. The nursery opens onto a colourful outdoor play area with a small vegetable and fruit garden enjoyed by the children. The children are encouraged to access the garden all year round.

The only time you will need to pay is for additional hours outside of your funding entitlements.

OFSTED Report
We are very proud of our nursery and what we have achieved since it formally opened in 2015.
“Oasis nursery was the best thing that could have ever happened to us and our family. Our little boy has come on leaps and bounds, and that is because of the hard work and fantastic foundations that you laid down for him. I would always be thankful for the team and staff and Oasis.”
