Fees & Session Times

WHAT WE OFFER YOUR CHILD:

First and foremost, we offer your child a safe, supervised environment which is tailored to their needs. Sessions will mainly focus on freeplay with age appropriate games and crafts and we are well resourced for both physical and creative activities. Relaxation is provided by way of a ‘quiet area’ which is well stocked with books catering for all ages. All year round, children will be encouraged to play outside in our large secure playground.
