Mission Statement

“If children are given the necessary tools to succeed, they will succeed beyond their wildest dreams!

Handprints day nursery provides a safe, stimulating environment for all children to learn, develop and thrive. Children learn through play and we ensure that all children are challenged and supported in their exploration of the world around them.

We are a welcoming and non-judgmental educational service for all families with children aged 3 months – 11 years. We offer a nurturing environment with equal opportunities for all children and work together with parents and other agencies to ensure their children receive the best start in life.”
