A minimum attendance of two full days per week is required, including either a Monday or Friday. Discounts are offered for siblings (8% for the eldest child) and for full-time attendees (10% for five days a week), though these discounts cannot be combined.

We are extremely happy with this nursery. Our son has been attending since he was a baby and it has been wonderful to watch him grow into a confident and happy preschooler in such a caring and nurturing environment. The staff are kind, attentive, and truly dedicated to the children’s wellbeing and development. Because of our positive experience, we will also be sending our second son here with complete confidence. We highly recommend it to other families.
