Parents Are Our Partners
We know that choosing a nursery is a very important and often difficult decision for parents. Our aim is to make this a stress-free choice and process for you, so your mind can be at ease as we build a great partnership together. We encourage parents and carers to have a chat with us and, if possible, to arrange a tour of our nursery.

Admissions
To enquire about a place for your child, please get in touch with us by phone or email. We'll be happy to discuss availability, answer your questions, and arrange a visit so you can see our nursery in action.
What You Need to Know
We are an equal opportunities setting and we embrace diversity irrespective of class, ethnic origin, gender, race, or religion. We welcome children from all backgrounds and support children with English as an additional language to be confident learners in a welcoming environment. Our activities reflect a wide range of cultures, which are also reflected in our toys, books, and images.
We have a nursery SENCO (Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator) who is trained to work with children with special needs. The SENCO will liaise with other professionals (with parents' consent) such as Early Years Inclusion Officers, Speech and Language Therapists, and Health Visitors to gain further advice in supporting each individual child.
Fees and Funding
We provide flexible childcare services. For information about our fees and available government funding options, please visit our Funding page or contact us directly. We're happy to discuss pricing and help you understand which funding schemes you may be eligible for.
Settling In
We understand that starting nursery is a big step for both children and parents. We work with each family to ensure a smooth transition, allowing your child time to become familiar with our setting, staff, and routines before they start regularly. Please speak with us about our settling-in process when you enquire.
Daily Routine and Meals
We follow a structured daily routine that balances play, learning, rest, and mealtimes. Please speak with us about our meal arrangements and any dietary requirements your child may have. We can accommodate allergies and cultural or religious dietary needs.
