Absolutely! We understand how important it is for parents to explore our nursery and see our environment firsthand. To ensure a smooth experience for both families and children, we carefully manage the number of tours we conduct. Tours are typically offered to families once a space becomes available. To find out when we can schedule your tour, please contact our admissions team today. Alternatively, you can join us for an open day! Check our What’s On page to see the dates of our upcoming events and discover the best opportunities to explore our nursery.
To secure your child’s place when one becomes available, we require a non-refundable £100 registration fee as well as a £400 deposit, which will be deducted from your first month’s fees. You can be added to a nursery waiting list free of charge.
Once a space has been offered, you will have 3 working days to complete the necessary documentation and transfer the deposit to secure your child’s place.
Where a place is not available, parents have the option to be added to our waitlist free of charge. Once a space becomes available you will be contacted to enquire if you would like to proceed with the registration process. We advise all prospective parents who are put on the waitlist to book a tour to view the nursery so that should a space become available, you can accept immediately, as spaces are allocated on a first come first serve basis. We aim to give parents as much notice as possible when a space becomes available.
