Welcome to Monkey Puzzle Billericay

Conveniently located on Chapel Street in Billericay, Monkey Puzzle Billericay is in a beautiful Grade II listed building at the rear of Waitrose car park, just a short walk away from Billericay train station. Our nursery is part of an award-winning nursery group, offering high-quality childcare in our specially equipped nursery for children aged three months to five years old. Our dedicated staff team ensure each child feels comfortable, loved and confident to learn and develop.

Adding to this, we tailor our care to suit your child’s age. We achieve this by placing children into the following age categories: babies aged three to fourteen months, toddlers aged fourteen months to three years, and lastly preschool aged three to five years. Due to our rooms being equipped especially for these ages, we are able to provide that home-from-home feel.

We take great pride in the care and education that we provide for our children and families. At our most recent inspection, we were delighted to be awarded a “Good” rating in every category by Ofsted.

Olu's Teacher 📚

We are over the moon to hear one of our Monkey Puzzle nursery team members, Jamel, has recently published his very own book, Olu's Teacher, a story about starting nursery!

Jamel's story is about a child named Olu, who is nervous about going to school for the first time. He knows his friends will be there, but he doesn't know what the teacher will be like. What do teachers look like? Where do they live? What do they eat? What if his teacher breathes fire, like a dragon? 🐉

Jamel addresses a common fear that children all over the world experience at the start of a new school year in a sweet, reassuring story paired with the gentle, welcoming illustrations of Lydia Mba.

We can't wait to read it!
