Support your local independent pre-school

We have been run by the same small team in Guildford since 2008. Child's Play is not part of a nursery chain: there is no head office, no area manager and no shareholders, just the people you meet at the door.

We are one pre-school, not a branch of one. Decisions about your child are made by the people who know your child, in this building, that week.
The same faces every morning. Our team stay for years, which is the thing that matters most to a two-year-old working out whether this is somewhere safe.
Small enough to be flexible. A settling-in visit, an awkward session time or a funding question can be sorted out with us, because there is nobody above us to ask.
We take every kind of Government funding, so choosing an independent pre-school does not cost you more.
A pre-school that closes does not come back. It becomes a church hall that is empty on a Tuesday morning, and the next family has one fewer choice.
