The Under Fives Project

We are governed by a management committee, which is made up of parents of children who are either attending the project or have previously been. Mrs Jenny Wolf initially established the project as there was nothing suitable in the local area, Jenny left the project 20 years ago, when a new co-ordinator was appointed Mrs Ella Carr; Ella has been working at the project for the last 25 years, the last 20 of these as co-ordinator.

The Under 5's nursery is a registered charity, therefore we strive to keep our fees to a minimal cost, while never compromising on quality of care, staffing or our learning environment. Fees are payable, in advance, on the 1st day of each calendar month, usually by standing order.

Leaving your child at nursery for the first time is stressful but by working together, exchanging information regularly and taking part in nursery life whenever possible, this difficult time will become a very positive experience for all.Every child is different. Settling your child into a nursery can take up to three or four weeks or longer depending on your child, and the consistency of their attendance.

IMPORTANT Pre-school children can very tired during the day and NEED the opportunity to rest/sleep within the nursery day. Every child's needs are different so we provide flexibility and opportunities for children to take rests and naps as they need and desire. It is VERY important that young children get ALL the sleep they need and so we prioritise and facilitate this in all departments of the nursery.
