Welcome to Wildflower Meadows
A nurturing alternative provision in West Berkshire for children aged 6 to 16.
At Wildflower Meadows, we offer a calm, nature-based setting for children who need something different. Some join us because they feel overwhelmed or disengaged in traditional settings. Others come because they flourish in hands-on, child-led environments. Whatever the reason, all are welcomed with care, curiosity, and respect.
We support children who experience anxiety, trauma, sensory processing differences, school-based distress, or emotional-based school avoidance (EBSA). Our provision is also ideal for those who are home educated and need a setting that values wellbeing, freedom, and connection.

Our provision runs Monday to Friday, term time only, and includes:
Outdoor and Nature-Based Learning
Daily time in nature to support regulation, confidence, and connection.Creative and Sensory Play
