Congratulations to Deputy Manager Hayley, from our Raised in Bristol at Felix Road Adventure Playground Nursery, who ran the Paris 2024 Marathon Pour Tous (Marathon For All) last weekend alongside participants from over 120 countries!

At Raised In we’re deeply saddened by the recent racist riots in Bristol. We stand against all forms of racism, discrimination and intolerance and as educators seek to teach the children in our care to embrace and celebrate all cultures, backgrounds and religions.

From the very start we have been committed to being a Real Living Wage employer. This has always been important to us as we believe that our brilliant team of passionate early years educators, nurturing your children, deserve to be paid fairly for what they do. The nursery sector has a reputation for being poorly paid, and we wanted to do our bit to try and change the narrative.

We know sometimes it's hard to get inspiration for how to entertain children during the summer months – so we’ve put together another one of our handy Raised in Bristol guides for things to do with kids in and around Bristol this summer! Here are our top five picks…

Are you passionate about early years education and looking for a rewarding nursery job in Bristol? Raised in Bristol isn’t just another childcare provider. As a social enterprise, we’re dedicated to making a positive impact in the community while nurturing the development of the children in our care through child-centred play-led learning.

We’re gearing up for the Southmead Summer Festival on the 13th July, and what better way to re-introduce families new and old to our lovely nursery housed at The Greenway Centre!

We can’t wait to meet lots of families at our light and beautiful day nursery, located to the north of Bristol and a stone’s throw from popular family neighbourhoods of Southmead, Wesbury-on-Trym and Henleaze. During the Southmead Festival you will be able to pop in, see the nursery, and take part in range of fun activities including free face painting!

We sat down with the wonderful Kellie from our city centre nursery in St Pauls and she told us a little bit about her time with Raised in Bristol, her early years practice and what she likes to do when she’s not busy running the nursery…

Exciting news for families in Bristol seeking a quality nursery place for their little ones! Raised in Bristol is thrilled to announce that we are accepting all of the government’s new funding, including the offer for two-year-olds which is now in place! As a trusted provider of nurturing education and childcare in Bristol, we are dedicated to ensuring that every child has access to the best possible start in life.

We are delighted to announce that our much-loved Tiny Humans parent and baby group returns in May to Raised in Bristol at the Greenway Centre. If you are a parent or carer to a tiny human aged 0-12 months, you can come along every Friday (1-2.30 pm) in May - for free!

Drum roll, please… We’re very excited to announce that our new nursery food provider from April will be the Bianchis Group with Cucina Bambini!

It’s Living Wage Week! At Raised In we’re proud to be an accredited real Living Wage Foundation employer…

Autumn is a wonderful time to be in Bristol, and it's even more special when you have little ones in tow. The city comes alive with family-friendly events and activities, making it perfect for an autumn adventure. Here are our top five things to do in Bristol with children under 5 years old this autumn half term…

We sat down and had a chat with the lovely Megan, nursery manager at our Easton nursery, to find out a little more about her and why she does what she does!
