From the Little Hands Nursery School - Melbourn
Little Hands Nursery Schools are experts in providing under-fives with high-quality preschool care, and two of our locations have designated baby rooms.
Little Hands, which has locations in the South Cambridgeshire villages of Bourn, Linton & Bartlow (which has a dedicated baby room), Melbourn (which has a dedicated baby room), and Newton, aims to provide a joyful, safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment that supports each child's overall development.
We try to explain what Little Hands can do for you and your kid on our website.
The Little Hands ethos is straightforward: Early Years research clearly supports the idea of learning through play, however for learning through play to be successful in a nursery setting, the child needs to get the same degree of individualised care and comprehension as parents do at home.
a flexible booking system that enables parents to reserve the precise number of hours at the nursery that their children and families require.
Our ability to customise our services to meet the needs of each kid and their family is by far our greatest asset.
We thus ask that, prior to making session reservations, you visit the Nursery or speak with Nursery personnel about your child and your particular needs, using the material provided in the website's download area as a guide.
All Little Hands Nursery Schools accept children as young as two years old, and Little Hands Melbourn and Little Hands Linton & Bartlow both have special infant rooms.
