What we do

Cwtsh y Clos Nursery is a childcare centre in Llanarthney, Carmarthen. We welcome children between the ages of 6 weeks to 7 years into our care. Cwtsh y Clos Nursery is a Welsh nursery and conducts activities through the medium of Welsh. We also offer support and guidance to children in order to develop their bilingualism in a natural environment, as well as supporting parents and guardians in a similar manner.
Our main aim at Cwtsh y Clos to provide children with a calm, caring and friendly environment which is surrounded by nature and natural resources. We believe that through doing this they will learn and experience the wonders of our world.

Who do we support

Our Nursery is aimed at children and their parents who want a caring and nurturing environment. We are situated on a small holding which is 500 meters from the main farm. The children have an opportunity to see sheep/lambs, cows and a horse during the year as all these animals graze regularly around the small holding. We also have our own chickens and a rabbit which the children help care for. Although we are a Welsh Medium setting we respect the child's home language and teach Welsh alongside their first language. We have children who are tri-lingual within the Nursery. We also cater for children with additional learning needs along with children with allergies.
