Yes, both nurseries my dad has attended have changed nappies. It should be fine but give them a call to check.

Yes they will change him don't worry. Very few children are potty changed before the age of two.

thanks very much i just worry as i understood they must change nappies of babies but toddlers who will kick about and not always make it easy to change their nappy i was not sure about that , i just hope he gets on ok at nursery and sorta feel bad for sending him in a way when he cant yet talk put i suppose i can take him out if hes not happy there or the staff say hes not ok there

Don't feel bad for sending him, being at nursery will help with his speech and he will have a great time playing with the other children. My ds has just turned two and the nursery staff sing with him whilst changing him as he can make a fuss.

I work in a school nursery in the two year olds room. All children attend 3 hours per day either morning or afternoon. We have a nappy changing room as most of the two year olds are still in nappies. We support toileting as they get a bit older and most are not in nappies before moving up to our 3/4 year olds rooms.
