PARENTS / CARERS

At Playtime Daycare, we understand how challenging the transition from home to nursery can be. That’s why we take pride in our supportive settling-in process, designed to ease this journey for both you and your child.

Many of our staff are parents too, so we value honest, open relationships with families. By working closely with you, we create a strong partnership to ensure your child feels happy, secure, and ready to thrive.

At Playtime Daycare, we understand that the transition from home to nursery can be challenging for both children and parents. That’s why we take great pride in our thoughtful settling-in process, offering personalised support to make this adjustment as smooth as possible for everyone involved.

Many of our staff are parents themselves, so we’ve experienced the emotions that come with this big step. This shared understanding drives our commitment to building honest, open, and supportive relationships with all our parents from the very beginning.

We firmly believe that strong partnerships with parents are just as important as the care and nurturing we provide for their children. Together, we create a foundation of trust and collaboration to ensure every child thrives.

We understand that childcare costs can be challenging for many families, which is why we offer funded places for eligible children from 9 months upwards.

Government support is available to help make high-quality early education more accessible.

To check if you’re eligible, visit Help paying for childcare - GOV.UK or speak to a member of our nursery team—we’re here to help and happy to guide you through the process.

For families who do not qualify for funded places, we offer private childcare spaces.

Please feel free to speak with the Nursery Manager to discuss the available options and find the best solution for your child’s needs.
