Wingate Childcare provides care and education for children from three months to five years. It shares its philosophy with that of Wingate Nursery School, believing that all children have the ‘right to a good childhood’. Childcare will possibly be a child’s first venture into the world outside their family, therefore we believe it is essential that this experience is of the highest quality. We aim to provide a safe, warm, and homely environment, a stimulating place where children can play, explore, talk, learn and have fun together.

​

The childcare is incorporated into Wingate Nursery School and the two organisations work alongside each other. 

​

The Company is managed by a Board of Directors

They are:

• Paddy Beels – Company Secretary

• Becky Wood

 Our intention 

Our intention is to provide a happy, safe and nurturing environment that strengthens the wellbeing of children. We aim to provide our children with a variety of hands on, meaningful experiences which in turn develop into new knowledge and skills. We ensure all experiences are meaningful and follow children’s interests and value their ideas.

We value the importance of:

• Giving children time

• Providing nurturing and stimulating environments

• Skilled practitioners

• Exciting opportunities
