About this day nursery

Wendron Pre-School, located in Helston, offers a welcoming and nurturing environment for young children aged 2½ to 4 years. The pre-school focuses on providing high-quality care and education, working closely with parents to support each child's learning and development.

They aim to integrate into the local community and offer a service that prioritises equality and diversity. The pre-school emphasises the importance of a strong partnership with parents, encouraging induction visits and gathering information about each child's learning preferences, interests, and any concerns.

A dedicated key person is assigned to each child, guiding parents through necessary administrative forms such as medical, accident, and photography consents. This collaborative approach ensures that children feel confident and secure, enabling them to play and learn effectively within the group.

The pre-school encourages prospective families to arrange visits to familiarise themselves with its routines, staff, and other children.
