We have a committed and experienced staff team. We are proud of the high ratio of adults to children in our group (1:6 minimum). This ensures a good understanding of the needs and development of each child. All staff undergo DBS checks, and all qualified staff have current Paediatric First Aid Certificates.

The role of parents

The pre-school recognises parents as the first and most important educators of their young children. Our Pre-School aims to support parents. Parents are welcomed to:

  • work in the group with the children
  • take part in the management of the Pre-school via the committee
  • assist in fundraising
  • attend training courses, workshops and conferences
  • represent the Pre-school at branch and county activities
  • participate in organised outings
