From the time you arrive at our door you will be guaranteed a warm welcome. We care for children from 3 months to 5 years of age and are open from 7.30 am to 6.00pm. Apart from our exceptional childcare, we also offer something most other nurseries don’t which is complete flexibility! We aim to cater for the needs of today’s parents whether they are just going to the gym or shopping for a few hours, or going to work full time and every time in between!

The top floor or our Nursery is for the youngest children in our care. The Happy Hedgehogs are encouraged to choose from an abundance of activities and equipment carefully chosen to meet their individual needs in a safe secure environment. We have a separate sleep room in order to ensure your baby rests peacefully when they need to. We have a soft play and ball area to encourage your child to explore and develop physically. We have a quiet area, home corner and lots of messy play!
