We will operate two sessions:
8am - 4pm • 8am - 6pm.

We recognise that an early drop off can sometimes be a big help, so we will be offering an Early Blue Doors session from 7.30am which includes breakfast.

All of our team are qualified practitioners with some holding Level 6 degrees in Childcare. We also love to develop apprentices as they work towards a relevant childcare qualification.

We know that outside space is crucial throughout early years development. We benefit from a  private play area and an interactive garden. We hope you will love it as much as we do.

It is important to us too. We will provide a balanced menu of home cooked meals in our own kitchen. If your child has a dietary requirement, please discuss this with your key person when starting, to ensure we can accommodate their dietary needs accordingly.

Yes, some of the best learning happens during field trips and we hope to build a really great reputation for the quality of our off-site trips.

Please email your requirements and we will do our best to accommodate them. All of our sessions are in high demand, so please note that we may not be able to increase your child’s sessions after they have registered. We require you to complete an increased session form.

Yes we accept funded children. Please discuss your specific needs with our team.
