Overview
We are in a rural setting with a new play area on our doorstep. Good parking for easy drop off and pick up.
Enclosed outdoor area for safe play. Mud kitchen, ride-on cars and sand/water tables.
Our staff are all either qualified or working towards a childcare qualification.
We have a separate baby room and a large room which is split for toddler and pre-school.
Most of our staff are First Aid and Safeguarding trained. We have a dedicated SENCO and Language lead. We also have our own cook who provides a well-balanced, varied menu.
