The Little Acorns room is our under two's room. We welcome infants under the age of 2 years. Our staff are committed to ensuring that all the children have their individual needs met and their happiness and contentment is paramount to everything we do for them. We have resources for water, sand and messy play as well as construction toys etc. We record your child's development throughout the nursery, which enables staff to plan activities to fulfil their individual needs and plan for their 'next steps' of development.
