Class Sizes & Staffing

We believe that 'small is beautiful' - our small class sizes and high adult to child ratios are unrivalled in the area, and as such your child will benefit from the individual attention we can give them throughout their time at nursery.

There are two playrooms at the Nursery: the Wee Room where the two-year olds are based and the Big Room for the older children. The average number of children in the Wee Room is 6 per session with one playleader and one parent helper, a ratio of 3 children to 1 adult.

In the Big Room the average number of children per session is currently 17 with three playleaders, a ratio of just under 6 children to 1 adult. The pre-school group has an average of 8 children with two playleaders, a ratio of 4 children to 1 adult, which allows us to work closely with each child in developing the skills needed for the all-important move to school.

All our staff are mums themselves and hold qualifications in childcare or are in the process of studying for such a qualification. (See Our Staff section).
