Babies

During the time your baby is with us, they will stay in our baby’s room, a space designed with their needs in mind.
Your baby will be looked after by a dedicated and specially trained team of individuals. They will each care directly for no more than three children at any one time. In doing so, our team are able to provide the intimate care your young child needs. This will also be achieved in a way that works in partnership with your parenting, so your child maintains consistency in their daily care.

Preschool
3 – 5 Years
We are trained and qualified to support your child’s education all the way through to joining school. All children’s development at the nursery is underpinned by the Early Years Foundation Stage which is the framework that your child will be assessed under in their first year at school. At our nurseries, we do this by carefully weaving development into your child’s play each and every day. Our approach to learning ensures that your preschool children are ready when the time comes to transition to school.

It`s Ramadan ✨
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar.
Over the course of the month, those who celebrate Ramadan do not eat or drink during the hours of daylight. This is called fasting. It is the month when families come together to celebrate iftar, do good deeds and donate money to those in need ❤️
Will you be celebrating Ramadan this year?
