Conkers
The Balsam Centre's community nursery
Welcome to Conkers
We provide a happy, nurturing environment to enable all children to reach their full potential.
The Balsam Centre opened Conkers Community Nursery in 2015 as a natural progression of its high-quality Children's Centre services. Run by our own Early Years staff, Conkers provides a full-time service that children can access daily, or as required.
​
Please note: There is a nursery in Wincanton which describes itself as ‘The Balsam Nursery within the Wincanton Early Years Centre’ and whose OFSTED report is headed ‘The Balsam Nursery’. Please be aware that this nursery has absolutely no connection with The Balsam Centre, or its nursery, Conkers Community Nursery.

Attendance requirements
All children are required to attend at least two sessions to give them the opportunity to settle. Consistency is generally more beneficial to the child.
