Parent Partnership

We believe working in partnership with parents is essential in supporting children's development and building positive relationships.


Sharing home learning ideas creates opportunities for children to learn and develop at home, as well as at nursery.


We use our online app to communicate and share your child's progress throughout their day. We also share helpful links, local community information and nursery events.

15 hours universal Funding per week is available to all children the term after their 3rd birthday. An extended 15 hours is also available to parents who meet the government criteria.


We offer flexible funding options over 38 weeks and stretched across the year. Please contact us for further information.

Settling in Sessions

Once a place has been confirmed, we will contact you to arrange a free settling in session prior to your child start date. 


These sessions usually run from 9am

 - 12noon.



This will be an opportunity for parents and children to meet their key worker, discuss their preferences, individual needs and for children to explore their new surroundings. 

Tax Free Childcare

If you're a working parent with children under 12 you can open an online account to pay for registered childcare.


The government will top-up the money you pay into the account. For every £8 you pay in, the government will add an extra £2. You can receive up to £2,000 per child per year - that's up to £500 every three months!
