November 1, 2024 at 8:18 amThere has not been one day that he has not (literally) skipped into the Ladybird class. They are discovering a huge amount everyday through playtime and in a enjoyable and exciting way. He comes home talking about his educators and friends in the most positive way and I can often almost hear his educators voice when he tells me ‘we did outstanding listening today’ or ‘I got this sticker because my singing was remarkable’.
Although there is enough flexibility and free-playtime, the routine and structure really suited him and made him sense secure and confident.
I am so grateful to everyone who contributed to his fantastic journey in Ladybirds. I cannot suggest St Edmunds Childcare centre and Pre-Prep enough.
Since my son went there almost three years ago he has changed into a wonderfully confident little boy.

December 18, 2024 at 8:07 amMy daughter has loved her time there. The team are fantastic, the manager and her team are everything that you want in your childcare centre educators – and the kids adore them! The feedback to us as parents is better than any other early years setting I have seen – as parents, it’s never a question as to what they have done all week – we receive weekly emails about what’s been happening, alongside the online portal, which is a pleasure to gain an insight into their week. They hold different themes throughout the term – from volcanos to kings and queens, which my daughter thought was excellent (especially the dressing up part!) The kids get to do so many different activities and explore the lovely grounds and the outdoor discovering facilities at the school. I’m sad that my daughter will be moving on from ladybirds – it’s been a lovely, special time. Thank you! St Edmunds childcare centre has been remarkable!

The childcare centre team are compassionate and passionate. Regular updates on the app. Top marks all around from us. Remarkable childcare centre.
