At Little Scamps we are passionate about providing an inspiring environment for all the children in our care. Our focus is care for each individual child and planning an enriching environment and play opportunities which meets their individual needs and interests. We strongly believe that all children are born with immense potential and quality early learning helps our children begin to realise that potential and build a strong foundation for later learning and for life.
Working in close partnership with parents enables us to celebrate the "wow" moments in a child's life and always to be planning for the next steps in their learning and development.
We are open term time from 9.00 to 12.15 for children aged 2 years to rising fives.
