Our opening times are 8.00am – 6pm. Our main hours are 9:00am – 3:00pm with the extra hours either side forming part of our wrap around care service. You can use your child’s funded hours to cover the cost of wrap around care or pay for it as an additional cost. Please speak to Helen if you have any queries about wrap around care.
We offer opportunities for each child and their parents to visit preschool together, meet the staff and play in the room and explore the outdoor areas too. Each child is allocated a Key Worker who will spend time getting to know you both. We tailor settling in plans for individual children and we will always work closely with you.
We offer 2 year old funded places. This funding provides 15 hours per week. There are a number of reasons that you may qualify for this. Helen our manager can advise and support the process.
The childcare grant is available for all children from the term after their third birthday. All parents can claim up to 15 hours per week, term time only. Some families may be eligible for 30 hours funding a week. These are known as additional 15 hours. As we are a provider registered with Cheshire West and Chester Council and OFSTED we are able to claim these hours on your behalf and will provide you with all the information and forms required.
