52 weeks/year
Our Tiny Tot Unit and Pre-School Day Nursery are open from 08.00 in the morning until
06.00 in the evening, 52 weeks a year, offering a structured day's activity for children
up to 5 years of age. Established in 1989 and under new management since November
2004, a family run Baby Care and Nursery operate from purpose built units in a delightful
"green fields" location on the edge of the beautiful village of Ashdon in North Essex,
England. The historic University town of Cambridge, Haverhill in Suffolk, the M11
motorway and the Market town of Saffron Walden in Essex are all less than twelve
miles away 
making the Nursery ideally placed.
"We aim to provide the children in our care with a safe, happy and homely environment where they
have the opportunity to explore and develop their individuality through discovery, experience and
learning".
Staff
The Staff are highly qualified and staff to children ratios range from 1:3 for the youngest to 1:8 for the very eldest.
