Why Parents Trust Rowans

A family-run nursery that Kingstanding and Sutton Coldfield families have relied on for over 30 years.

30 Years of Local Trust

Since 1996, Rowans has been part of daily life for families across Sutton Coldfield and Kingstanding. We are an independent, family-run nursery, not a corporate chain, and every decision is guided by what is best for the children in our care.

“Be Curious” Learning

Our nature-first, play-based curriculum swaps worksheets for sensory play, outdoor discovery and hands-on exploration in all weathers. Children leave Rowans confident, curious and genuinely excited to learn.

Affordable, Expert Care

We accept 15-hour and 30-hour funded places, Tax-Free Childcare and childcare vouchers. Our long-standing expert team will help you understand exactly what you are entitled to, so funding never becomes a barrier to a place at Rowans.

What Kingstanding Parents Say

“

Rowans genuinely feels like a home from home. From the very first visit, Amy and the team made us feel like our daughter was already part of the family. Drop-off used to be my biggest worry - now she runs in without looking back. The peace of mind I have every morning is priceless.

My son has been at Rowans since he was 8 months old, he is now nearly 2.5. The staff from the management, baby room to triangles and all other departments have been absolutely amazing. He has come on leaps and bounds from being there. It’s also sad to see a loved member of the management team leave the nursery as Oliver loved you there. Lucy was the first person i met on my walk around and has been so supportive through. Thank you to everyone at Rowans ❤️

We couldn’t be happier with Rowans day nursery. From day one, the staff have been incredibly caring, professional, and genuinely invested in every child’s happiness and development. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and feels safe the moment you walk through the door. The nursery is supported by a strong and dedicated management team, led by Amy, whose leadership is clearly reflected in the high standards throughout. Her approachability, professionalism, and commitment to excellence create a positive environment for both staff and families, ensuring the nursery is consistently well organised, supportive, and nurturing. The team does a wonderful job creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play, and it’s clear how much thought goes into meeting each child’s individual needs. Communication is excellent — we’re always kept up to date with daily activities, progress, and milestones, which gives real peace of mind. Our child has grown so much in confidence, social skills, and independence since attending, and is always excited to go in each morning. It’s obvious the staff truly care and take pride in what they do. We would wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing, supportive, and high-quality early years environment with outstanding leadership.

I am extremely impressed with the care and support my child receives at this nursery. The staff are truly dedicated to providing individualized learning experiences, tailoring activities to suit each child’s needs and developmental stage. I have noticed how well they use scaffolding techniques, gently guiding and supporting my child to build on their existing knowledge, fostering a love for learning. The communication between the nursery and parents is excellent. I always feel well-informed about my child’s progress, and I appreciate the regular updates and discussions that help me stay connected to their learning journey. It’s clear that the team is committed to creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where every child can thrive.

Rowans is an amazing nursery, my two older grandchildren went here a couple of years ago and absolutely loved it. My other grandson currently who's two years old attends three times a week and he also loves nursery. The staff are super friendly, the room settings are brilliant. The outside play area is large with lots to do. If your considering taking your little one here, I highly recommend this nursery. From one very happy nan.

Your Questions Answered

Do you have spaces for under 2s in January?

We care for children from birth through to school age across our Baby Unit (0-2 years), Nursery Unit (20 months-3 years), and Pre-School Unit (3-5 years). Spaces in our Baby Unit are the most limited, so we strongly encourage early enquiry if your child is under 2.

How do I apply for 30-hour funding at Rowans?

You apply directly through the government Childcare Choices website. Once approved, share your eligibility code with our team and we will apply it to your account.

Can I book a tour before the January term starts?

Absolutely – and we actively encourage it. A personal tour is the best way to see our rooms, meet the team, and ask any questions you have. Tours are available Monday to Friday during nursery hours.
