Celebrating over 40 years of outstanding modular buildings
Modern prefabricated nursery construction
When it comes to creating a new nursery for pre-school children, you need to make sure that the environment you create is not only safe, but stimulating and welcoming. This is why modular nurseries are much more effective than their traditional counterparts. In addition to the safety benefits that these buildings can provide, a modular daycare building also looks less scary or intimidating than conventional, brick-and-mortar buildings.
At Cotaplan, we can provide both local authorities and private businesses with bespoke modular nurseries and prefabricated daycare centres. We have worked with a wide range of clients over the last three decades, and we specialise in delivering the highest quality constructions for all uses. Our prefabricated nursery buildings are a high-quality, low cost solution which are suitable for early learning.

Here at Cotaplan, we have more than 40 years’ experience when it comes to delivering high-quality pre-fabricated constructions. We have worked with a wide range of clients to design and develop intuitive and versatile spaces for all kinds of uses. Modular education buildings, especially for pre-school children, need to be designed carefully. It can be a scary time for the children and, without taking the right steps to prevent them from being afraid, it can leave a lasting impression of school throughout their life.
Our experience allows us to work with you to effectively design and deliver nursery buildings for any number of pre-school children. Whether you’re looking to create an entirely new nursery space, improve upon an old one or add a nursery to a place of business or educational facility, such as a school, the Cotaplan team are here to help.
There’s plenty of reasons to choose a modular, prefabricated nursery over traditional brick buildings. The turnaround time in which a modular nursery can be constructed is often one of the great attractions of prefab buildings as well as our modular nursery buildings being an eco-friendly construction. Nursery owners looking to fully benefit from an energy efficient modular build may be interested in PassivClass modular builds. We were the first in the UK to construct a PassivClass building at Smallwood Primary in London.
Other benefits of modular nursery buildings include:
Prefabricated pre-school buildings are entirely customisable. That means you can choose the layout which suits your needs best. Thanks to portable buildings, you aren’t limited in your ideas, and your new construction can be internally and externally fitted to meet your requirements.
Our modular nurseries are designed to meet the requirements and needs of both young children and carers. Thanks to their versatility, our prefabricated nursery buildings can be equipped with child-level windows, heated benches, lowered sinks, toilets and storage areas. We can also provide low-level partitioning to allow unobstructed views across the nursery for carers.
Our pre-fabricated constructions are completely safe. As each component is made off-site, in factory conditions, they are thoroughly tested before we send them out the door. That means there will be no chance of faulty materials causing your building to suffer. In addition, our materials make the entire project simple and clean, ensuring a completely safe space for your pre-school children.

Modular nursery buildings are becoming increasingly popular as a cost-effective and flexible alternative to traditional brick-and-mortar buildings. They offer a number of benefits, including:
As a result, modular nursery buildings are a smart choice for nurseries that are looking for a cost-effective, flexible, and sustainable solution.
The cost of a modular nursery building will vary depending on a number of factors, including the size of the building, the type of materials used, and the level of customisation. However, modular buildings are typically more cost-effective than traditional buildings.
At Cotaplan, we understand that budgets in the UK education sector are often tight. That’s why we do everything we can to accommodate your budget when designing and building your modular nursery building.
On average, it takes around 8 weeks to build a modular nursery building from manufacturing in-house to erecting the building on-site.
This is significantly faster than traditional construction methods, which can take months or even years to complete. The speed of construction is one of the biggest advantages of prefab units, and it can be a major factor in the decision to choose modular construction for a nursery.
Modular nursery buildings offer a number of environmental benefits over traditional buildings, including:
Modular nursery buildings are designed to be safe for children. They are built to meet all applicable safety standards, and they are equipped with features such as fire sprinklers, safety glass, and non-slip flooring.
At our company, we prioritise safety in all aspects of our modular nursery building design and construction. We ensure that all of our modular buildings meet or exceed all relevant UK safety standards, including those outlined in the Building Regulations and other relevant codes.
Maintenance for modular nursery buildings is generally straightforward and requires very little effort. The exterior of the building can be cleaned with a pressure washer or standard cleaning solutions, and any repairs can be handled quickly and efficiently by a professional modular building contractor.
Inside, the building’s finishes and systems are designed for ease of maintenance and durability. Walls, floors, and ceilings are typically constructed with easy-to-clean materials, such as vinyl or tile, which are resistant to stains and moisture. The building’s electrical and plumbing systems are also designed to be easily accessible and serviced as needed.
Regular inspections and preventative maintenance can help ensure that a modular nursery building remains in good condition for years to come. This can include checking the building’s HVAC system, electrical components, and plumbing systems, as well as cleaning and maintaining the building’s exterior and interior.
Some school buildings are grade II listed and to have permission to build an extension onto these buildings may be difficult to acquire. Mobile classrooms are therefore the ideal solution. They can be positioned where you want, equipped with all necessary facilities and rooms and can even be added to or moved at a later date.
We know how important it is to keep disruption to a minimum in any location, especially so in a school environment. As modular classrooms are built off-site at our facility, the construction time on site is vastly reduced and is quicker and less disruptive than traditional bricks-and-mortar construction.
Another advantage of prefabricated construction is that our buildings are portable. Our mobile classrooms can be relocated any time so if you need to move the classroom to a different part of the school, we can do this.
Modular classrooms are available in a variety of finishes to suit you. By working closely with our team, we can plan and create a bespoke prefab classroom that will meet your needs, right down to the flooring. We can incorporate store rooms, cloak rooms, changing rooms, toilets, kitchenettes and much more into your modular classroom solution.
To improve accessibility for all students, we can provide wheelchair access or specialist equipment for students with special needs.
At Cotaplan, we can provide both local authorities and private businesses with bespoke modular nurseries and prefabricated daycare centres.
