We provide high-quality, wrap-around childcare from 0-11 years, with fully experienced and dedicated staff who ensure that each and every child's needs are met in a happy, bilingual environment. We are very proud that we have several children registered with us who are second generation, in that their mother or father themselves attended the crèche as infants. We have various childcare packages to suit all requirements, including popular Breakfast and After School Clubs for school-age children and our Holiday Club where children are kept safe and actively occupied in a fun atmosphere during the school holidays.

Children entrusted to our care are given the opportunity to explore their world in a safe, warm, secure and loving environment. We encourage them to develop their rapidly expanding skills and abilities in a nursery run with a dedicated staff of qualified childcare professionals.

We are members of the Neath Port Talbot Healthy & Sustainable Pre-School Scheme and take very seriously our responsibilities for both providing healthy foods in the crèche and promoting the health and wellbeing of children to parents.
