Welcome to
Dreamcatcher Childcare
Our nursery (for ages 3 months – 5 years) is located in a charming old building, full of character with an outdoor space which overlooks green fields.
We are a local independent nursery, with dedicated teachers and a place in the community. Dreamcatcher Childcare provides an environment for children to develop their natural curiosity through positive learning experiences.
A time to learn. A time to play. A time to dream!
Dreamcatcher’s story so far
Dreamcatcher Childcare was set up in 2011 based on the principles of building strong partnerships with parents and children based on trust and respect. When founder, Lynne Turner, retired in 2024, she handed over the baton to Mary Brosnan.
Mary set up the Storybook Nursery in Ascot, where a focus looking after parents and children and the pursuit of the highest standards has always been at the top of the agenda.
This alignment of values, the shared experience of running an independent nursery and familiarity with local catchment schools made Mary just the person to continue the Dreamcatcher story.
Dreamcatcher Childcare is a real local neighbourhood nursery. It’s charming character building has three sizeable classroom spaces and a dedicated chef on site to provide nutritious meals. Its ample outdoor area is a wonderful space for learning, playing and letting off steam with friends!
The new ownership brings experience and commitment to continuing the Dreamcatcher story of providing an EYFS environment that is a comfortable, nurturing, educational and caring for nursery age children.
Follow your child’s journey →Follow your child’s journey!
The early years are a wonderful period for all parents and their children, a journey marked by many first steps. At Dreamcatcher we are well aware that time goes fast, which is why we record the achievements of each child in our parent app called Blossom. We also email parents a weekly newsletter called the Dreamcatcher Bulletin so that parents can keep up with our busy day to day!
Our personal approach
We record the achievements of each child in their learning journals, which become a unique record of their experiences, observations, photographs and pieces of artwork. Parents and families can add their own input to these journals so that they capture all aspects of every child’s early years.

We will be so sad when he leaves but we know he has had the best start and the most love from this wonderful nursery." - The Baker Family
