Little Explorers Day Care Kent (HB)

About this day nursery

Little Explorers Day Care Kent offers a nurturing and stimulating environment for children aged 6 months to 5 years, focusing on individual potential and a love for learning. The day nursery provides full-day care from Monday to Friday, with flexible hours from 7:30 am to 6 pm to accommodate working parents.

Healthy meals and snacks are provided, including breakfast and home-cooked dinners. Their approach emphasises daily outdoor adventures—weather permitting—with trips to a local farm, library, beach, and for swimming sessions.

Indoors, children engage in creative play, from reading and painting to model making and caring for a guinea pig. The "Home from Home" philosophy prioritises comfort and familiarity, encouraging children to bring items from home.

Their dedicated team, all professionally qualified and passionate about childcare, works in partnership with families to support each child's development. The day nursery is OFSTED registered and offers a secure parent portal, "Big Explorers," for essential news, event updates, menus, and priority booking for holiday clubs.

These holiday clubs extend care to children up to 7 years old, offering flexible, fun-filled programmes with diverse activities.
