Most of our clubs operate between 7:30am and 6:00pm, although exact times may vary depending on the school.
All sessions align with government guidance for wraparound childcare and individual school agreements.
Do you provide food at your clubs?
Yes. Our breakfast clubs include a healthy morning meal, helping children start the school day ready to learn.
Our after-school clubs provide a light snack, followed by a more filling option later in the session depending on the club timetable.
All food follows balanced nutrition guidelines.
Can I cancel or reschedule a booking?
Yes. We ask for at least 48 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or move a session.
We understand plans change, especially with young children, and our team will always try to help reschedule where possible.
Are your clubs suitable for Reception children?
Yes. Our clubs are designed to support younger children settling into school life.
Our team works closely with schools to help Reception pupils build confidence, make friends and feel comfortable in the environment.
Are your staff trained and DBS checked?

We follow safer recruitment procedures and Ofsted guidance to ensure every child is supported in a safe and trusted environment.
Can I use Tax-Free Childcare or Universal Credit?
Yes. Many families use Tax-Free Childcare or Universal Credit childcare support to help pay for breakfast clubs, after-school clubs and holiday camps.
We are Ofsted-registered, which means our clubs are eligible for most government childcare schemes.

No. Many parents choose regular weekly sessions, but some schools also offer flexible or ad-hoc bookings, depending on availability.
