A little about our "OUTSTANDING" setting.......

Our "pack away" preschool is based in Broughton Pavilion, Tanfield Lane. We have sole use of a preschool room, outside area, (shared) kitchen and dedicated toilets for the children to use. We open at 8:45am until 11:45 with a lunch club option till 12.00. The afternoon sessions start at 12.00 until 14:45. There is a full day option also from 8:45-14:45. These sessions are subject to availability, our fees are calculated on an hourly basis and support our parents requirements. 

We have a dedicated and qualified owner/manager, Karly, who oversees the setting daily. Karly has always been passionate and motivated to work in the early years sector, pursuing higher education and earning her NNEB at just 18 years old. Her additional responsibilities include serving as Senco, Designated Safeguarding Lead, and First Aider.

The manager and deputy are both Senco and DSL trained. 

We use a keyperson system to ensure all children and families feel safe and secure in our preschool, working together to help each child progress through the Early Years Foundation Stage.

We have adopted "In the moment" style planning and every interaction is adapted for each child's INDIVIDUAL needs. 

"OUR VISION, is to provide a warm, natural, welcoming environment in which children feel safe and inspired to learn. Children are supported in all areas of their development, enabling them to become independent, confident, unique, thinkers and explorers"

Please contact us to discuss your requirements and to book a show around. Thank you.
