At Little Cubs Academy, we help uncover children’s unique strengths and abilities in warm and caring settings that have been carefully designed to help children thrive and reach their full potential. We are a family owned, independent nursery and pre-school group for children from 3 months to 5 years of age, we are open 51 weeks a year, 5 days a week, providing high-quality day care and early years education that will make you wish you were a child again.
We encourage children to be creative, ask questions, and explore the world around them. Play is at the heart of everything we do. We provide the love and care that children need to feel safe, secure and happy because we think that’s the best way to help them learn, make friends, and build magical memories that will last them a lifetime.
But it doesn’t stop there. At Little Cubs Academy we want to create an inclusive community for the whole family, so we build strong, trusted relationships with parents and offer a fun and varied programme of events and activities that everyone can get involved in. Why not come and have a look for yourself and talk to one of our settings? We think a visit to one of our nurseries and pre-schools is the best way for you to truly find out what makes us unique.
