Preschool offers all day childcare from 7:30-6:00pm for 3-4 year olds and from 9:00-3:00pm for 2-3 year olds in Broughton Astley
Our warm welcoming setting has been praised by Ofsted and parents - the perfect place to know your child is in trustworthy and caring hands
A team of experienced and well-qualified staff who have your child at the heart of all they do
We are very proud of our Preschool, which was rated GOOD IN ALL AREAS by Ofsted in June 2022.
We offer your child:
We provide a pleasant and warm environment for your young child to develop their own experiences whilst supported and facilitated by our experienced and qualified staff.
Play is important for learning and they will get messy as they produce their first masterpieces, muddy in our mud kitchen and sandy in our hands on play! Social interaction is strongly encouraged so that your child makes new friends and develops their communication skills. Stimulating, exciting and challenging activities will give your child that head start ready for school, but there will still be the all-important fun, play, love and reassurance for your child.
We currently have limited places available for 2, 3 and 4 year olds.

How will I be invoiced and how much will I be charged?
For one morning or afternoon session (9am-12pm or 12pm-3pm), the charge is £15.90 for three and four year olds and £17.90 for two year olds.
For a whole day session from 9am to 3pm, the charge is therefore £31.80 for three and four year olds.

Most of our children have these charges paid for completely through the government 15 hour a week or 30 hour a week funding, depending on the number of sessions which your child attends.
