Zig Zag Day Nursery was created in March 2012 with a simple aim – to offer something more personal than larger, corporate childcare settings.
As a family-run nursery in Peterborough, we focus on:
Many of our families tell us they chose Zig Zag because it feels warm, welcoming and personal, and because they know their child will be cared for by familiar staff who truly know them.
We are proud to support families across Peterborough and to be part of the local community.
At Zig Zag Day Nursery Peterborough, we provide a calm, welcoming environment where children feel safe, secure and confident to explore.
Our baby room provides a calm, nurturing environment where the youngest children feel safe
We understand that trusting someone with your child is a big step.
Our commitment is to provide a safe, caring nursery environment where children feel happy to come each day and where parents feel reassured and supported.
We aim to give every child the strongest possible start, not only for school but also for life.

Choosing a nursery is a big decision, and we know how important it is for families to feel confident in their choice.
We are proud to support families across Peterborough, and it means a lot to us when parents share their experiences of Zig Zag Day Nursery.
Here are some of the things families have said about us.
“We feel completely reassured leaving our child here. The staff are warm, approachable and genuinely care about the children. It gives us real peace of mind knowing our child is happy and well looked after.”
“The staff genuinely care about the children and build such lovely relationships with them. You can tell they really know each child as an individual, and that makes a big difference.”
“My child settled quickly and now loves coming to nursery. They talk about their friends and the staff at home, which shows how comfortable they feel.”
“We’ve seen such a boost in our child’s confidence since starting at Zig Zag. The activities are varied and you can see how much thought goes into helping the children learn and grow.”
“Communication is really good and we always feel informed about how our child is doing. The updates and conversations with staff make us feel involved in their nursery life.”
If you would like to see the nursery for yourself, we would love to welcome you for a visit.
At Zig Zag Day Nursery Peterborough, our curriculum is designed around the needs of our children, families and community.
We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) statutory framework and use Development Matters to guide learning and development. Alongside this, we have developed our own curriculum that reflects what children in our setting need most in order to thrive.
