Ladybirds Playschool Ltd is a local community setting with an experienced staff team. We provide a child lead Early Years learning experience for children aged 2 to 4yrs with many extra learning opportunities without charging additional fees. A child attending ladybirds Playschool has free access to a large well equipped outdoor space. All children in the last year before school entry attend forest school as part of their funded hours. We regularly join in with community events and enjoy the use of community parks and walks in our locality.

At Ladybirds playschool we encourage the children to make healthy choices about food. The children help to prepare afternoon snack and this encourages them to try new things. It also helps to develop their fine motor skills, learn about using tools safely and provides an opportunity for small task responsibility.
