Karen and Harry Cardwell set up the original Sunflowers Day Nursery in Cottingham in the 1990s. With a background in nursing and an Early Years Foundation degree in Childhood Studies, Karen now owns three Sunflowers nurseries and plays an active role in their running, alongside her skilled and experienced management team.
Sunflowers Day Nurseries promise to provide outstanding nursery provision within a loving environment supported by a team of dedicated, professional carers. Sunflowers core values are quality, teamwork, accountability, integrity and valuing others.
At Sunflowers Day Nurseries we treat children as individuals, each with their own specific needs. This means that our children move from room to room as and when the staff and parents decide they are ready, and not simply because of their age.
All children are different, and they reach certain developmental milestones at different times. At Sunflowers we ensure all children are encouraged and stimulated to reach their full potential in a fun, loving, non-pressurised environment.
The parents’ peace of mind is essential, and It is important you know as much about the nursery as possible. We encourage as much parental involvement as you wish to put in.
