Getting ready for our new academic year 2026/2027, we have made some significant changes that we hope will enhance educational and care solutions for families looking for a longer care day for their Child/Children.

We are thrilled to be able offer this opportunity, as conversations with some of our current parents have indicated that extended care hours could be very beneficial to them.

In addition to the extended daily care sessions, Toddlers Inn will also provide an extra 10 weeks of care throughout the year.

These additional weeks will cover what are currently known as Half Terms, Easter Breaks, and the Summer Break, including our Summer School, making the total number of weeks Toddlers Inn will be open to 49 weeks per year.

Toddlers Inn will be closed for the final 3 weeks of the year: 2 weeks during the Christmas/Winter Break and 1 week covering the Easter Bank Holiday period. 

The summer school, which currently runs for 4 weeks, will now extend to cover the entire summer period, from the end of the summer term to the beginning of the Autumn Term.

This equates to approximately 8 weeks.

In summary, the options for our families are:

1. Option to stay with just our core term time sessions, running for 39 weeks, 9am to 3.30pm. We are still offering the morning and full day options.
2. Option to add extended care sessions, during the half terms, Easter and Summer periods.
3. Option to add the extended care sessions to the core day, 8.30am – 5.30pm.
