Welcome To MRN Ilkeston
View the virtual tour
Our Ilkeston nursery is set within a bright and welcoming space, surrounded by an acre of greenery and close to the heart of town. The nursery is a short walk from Victoria Park, with easy access from nearby roads and public transport. The nursery is spacious and full of natural light, offering a calm and inviting atmosphere that feels like a home away from home.
Children benefit not only from the generous outdoor space but also from a stimulating indoor environment that nurtures their natural curiosity and love for learning. We believe in building strong, trusting relationships with our children, their families, and the wider community—working together to create a supportive and enriching early years experience.

Healthy Meals & Nutrition
At Magic Roundabout Nursery, we believe great care starts with great food. That's why we employ our own in-house chef to craft fresh, quality meals and snacks from scratch every day. This ensures every dish is nutritionally balanced, delicious, and meets all dietary needs, fueling your child's energy for learning and play.
