The most perfect setting and environment for my little boy. Since he has started we have seen many positive changes. He is progressing and thriving so well and this would not be possible without the amazing staff. All staff including management are super friendly.

My child started a year ago and is leaving for school soon. She has loved every second and I can't praise the girls enough. Management are always on hand to help me and she loves the food. Would recommend the nursery to anyone!

🧘‍♂️Toddler Yoga🧘‍♀️

💜Our Toddlers have been exploring Yoga outside, connecting their minds, bodies through simple stretches, poses and mindful breathing.

💛Yoga helps children build strength, balance and coordination, while also supporting emotional regulation and a sense of calm. The children remained focused, relaxed and smiled throughout as they discovered new ways to move and express themselves.
