Well that’s our first week done in our new home!!
We’ve had tears, crazy busy times, lots and lots of nappies but most of all we’ve had fun!!
We’re starting to get into the groove of it, the children are getting used to us/the room and we’re really looking forward to watching and being a part of their early years journeys.
All that being said I am glad it’s the weekend 😴😴.
Have a good one all

We’ve had a very busy but good first two days back!! It’s been manic at times but we’ve got
1- Totally new children that haven’t been left with anyone before
2- Children that are used to the room but don’t know us staff
3-Children that know us but are new to the room.
4-Children that are out of routine from the summer holidays.
Everything will settle, as the children become more settled and less tired.
Just wanted to say a big thank you to you all for your patience and support 🙌🏻

We still have some spaces available but these are now limited!! I will be looking at our numbers and ratios tonight and myself or Elaine will be in touch tomorrow for parents that have made recent enquiries. Sorry for any delay I just want to be accurate with our availability ☺️

Thank you so much to everyone that popped in today, it was lovely to see both familiar and new faces. We’ve worked hard to create a space for your children to play, explore, thrive and just have some good fun in. We still have bits and bobs to finish but I’m so proud with what we’ve achieved 🤩

Happening tomorrow!! Please note for our entrance you do not need to go through the George Ward Centre. There are signs which will guide you round to us (a footpath to the left of the building will lead you round to our outdoor area). You can also park on the car park on Church Lane and walk up towards the back of the building.
Hopefully you can make some sense of this!! Giving directions have never been my strong point 🙈.
We will keep our eyes peeled for anyone looking a little lost!

We are excited to open our doors to you all very soon (Tuesday 1st September).
We will be looking to hold an Open Morning/Afternoon later in the school year, BUT for now we will be having a time before we open for you to come and have a look round, meet the staff and ask any questions that you may have. This will be taking place on Wednesday 26th August 10am-12. Please let us know if you’re thinking of popping in just so we have a rough idea of numbers.
Any questions please ask ☺️

We’re thinking about all of our school leavers as they begin their next chapter over the coming week. They will be amazing 🤩. Mummies and Daddies they’ve got this 🙌🏻

Little sneaky peek 👀 not quite finished but very nearly!!

We really do have the best families 🥰. How lovely is this card? Inside was a voucher for Amazon. The little boy (who’s sadly left to go to big school) wants us to use it to buy new equipment so “the next group of children can have just as much fun” 🥹. Melted me.
Massive thank you to “L” and Mummy and Daddy
