Funding is now available for children aged 9 months and over, helping you manage costs while giving your child the best start. Our setting near the University of Central Lancashire is built on almost 30 years of experience supporting local families. We also provide engaging nursery activities alongside clear policies and procedures to support every child’s development and give families confidence in our care.
