Bunnies Preschool operates two friendly settings in Shephall and Great Ashby, Stevenage, catering to children aged two to four years. Each location prides itself on a dedicated team of qualified and experienced staff, offering a rich variety of activities designed to foster learning and curiosity.
The Shephall branch, situated within Featherstone Wood School, boasts its own secure classroom and outdoor play area, with additional access to school facilities like a large playground and field. The Great Ashby setting is based in the Community Centre, featuring a main hall and a private outdoor space.
Both nurseries have received recognition for their quality in early years education, with Shephall earning a Gold award in July 2023 and both settings achieving Silver awards in July 2022 from Hertfordshire Early Years Quality Standards. They encourage parents to explore their facilities through video tours and provide support for new children settling in.
The preschools are committed to developing children's independence and offer a stimulating environment for play, exploration, and learning.
