Starting Blocks is an out of school childcare provision for children aged
between 3 and 14 years. We provide a safe and fun place for your child to go before and after school, and during the school holidays. It’s a great opportunity for your child to socialise with other children

All our staff are all police checked and either hold or are training towards a level 2, or level 3 NVQ in Childcare. All staff have also completed training in First Aid, Child protection and hold a basic food hygiene certificate. They all also undertake regular specialised training sessions on issues appropriate to their role. All of our activities are carefully planned, assessed for risk and meet the Every Child Matters initiative.

We welcome and are able to support children with additional support needs. We work closely with “Breaks in Partnership”, “EYDCP” and the “Disabled Children Team” who fund places for children with additional support needs.
