Grendon and Billesley Nursery & Family Centre
Manager’s Statement
Hello, I’m Kerrie-Ann, the manager here at Grendon Billesley Nursery and Family Centre. With over 15 years of experience in Early Years Education – and as a proud mum of two myself – I know just how important it is to find a nursery where children feel safe, happy, and inspired to learn. I’m passionate about creating an inclusive, welcoming environment where every child can thrive and where families and staff feel valued and supported. Building a culture of happiness for our team, children, and parents is at the heart of everything I do. And when I’m not at nursery, you’ll usually find me spending time with my family… or indulging in my guilty pleasure – catching up on Home and Away!
About us !
This site is based at on Grendon Road in Warstock, Birmingham. It opened in June 2004 as a Neighbourhood Nursery designed to provide affordable, high quality day care for families.
It is 97-place setting for children aged 0 –12 years.
The setting offers 7.30am-6.30pm, Monday – Friday, all year round provision. In addition, we offer a before- and after-school for children from the neighbouring Grendon Primary School.
Funded sessions are available for 9 months-5 year olds. We offer a range of sessions, including a stretched funding offer which is over 48-weeks or 51 weeks of the year depending on the funding you receive.
Funding session are between 15-30 hours for those children ages 9 months-5 years old. Please contact us for our funding booklet for more information.
The nursery has 5 main rooms which are spilt into different age groups from our little ones at 6 weeks to our children preparing to take their next steps in their learning adventure at School.

Our approach for learning is to create for our children an environment that inspires, is exciting and will engage them in their own learning each and every day. Our environment is filled with authentic and real life objects and those from the natural world. Children are given the opportunity to explore and use their imagination to take their play and learning where ever they wish it to go.
The centre benefits from a sensory room, large outdoor space including tree house and tree area which is fantastic for den building and exploring nature as well as its own planting area.
