ABOUT US
At Jurassic Childcare we provide a mixed-age childcare service all year round. The nursery operates from Monday to Friday 7.30 am to 6.00 pm. Registrations are open to children from birth to 11 years.
Here, we follow a Montessori inspired educational approach, which promotes hands-on learning and self-directed activities for children in the classrooms. This is well balanced by fully qualified, DBS checked Early Years Practitioners who plan various activities carefully, considering the children and their interests.
​
The environment here at Jurassic Childcare is purposefully planned according to age appropriateness to give our children the freedom to, independently, choose activities they wish to explore.
