Ankerville Nurseries are a family owned group of 3 nurseries based in Tain and Alness. We cater for children from 0-12 years on a full, part time and after school basis. Ankerville has a team of dedicated, highly qualified staff who work to carefully planned routines, which are geared to the appropriate age range. We are passionate about providing a ‘child-centred’ learning environment offering a wide range of activities and experiences for your child based on nationally recognised educational and developmental standards. Ankerville House Nursery was established in 1999 with Ankerville Baby Unit following in 2003 and the purpose built Ankerville Alness following in 2007. Carol MacRae, owner and founder has more than 30 years experience working with pre-school children and as a mother herself understands the importance of a happy nursery education. Ankerville Nurseries has grown from a single nursery offering just 15 places to a 3 site operation with space for 169 children and over 50 staff.
