Starting at Kiddi-crèche Nursery

Children can attend Kiddi-crèche as often or as little as you require, a morning or an afternoon, a full day or a full week. We open as early as 7.30am for those that require our early start. Most children arrive between 8am and 9am and our latest pick up time is 6pm. We are open 51 weeks a year, closing only for Christmas week and bank holidays.

​

We do not charge for our “settle sessions” as we wish to encourage lots of these short visits. We don't want you to feel rushed, with time your child will become familiar with the practitioners who will care for them in your absence and begin to feel safe and secure. Once this relationship has developed sufficiently your child will be content to stay but only when they are ready.

​

Making an enquiry

​

It is not possible for you to feel the happy atmosphere we are so well respected for, or for you to fully understand what we can offer your child without visiting us. We hope therefore to see you in the future.

 Fees

​

Our fees are divided into 12 monthly payments and are payable monthly on the first day of every month. We charge daily or half daily with an early start option. We will explain any government help you may be entitled to and calculate your specific fee accordingly when you visit our nurseries.
