Our Rooms

All of our rooms across all three venues have been created to be comfortable, warm and homely, where our staff aim to create strong relationships with the children they care for always making sure that their needs are met.

In one of our baby rooms, your child will have lots of cuddles, songs and stories, comfortable sleep and plenty of time to play with their favourite toys and friends.

Our 2-3 rooms cater for young toddlers aged between 18 months and 36 months. Children in this room are offered a good balance of free play and essential time with adults who encourage physical development, independence and social skills as well as introducing children to stories songs, messy play and creative play.

Our pre-school rooms cater for our oldest children aged between 3-5 years. A day in our pre-school would include a combination of adult-led focussed learning and free choice activities in accordance with the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum. The children will also participate in group time activities that focus on letters and sounds, early numeracy, and personal and social development.
