This year, Ossett Childcare & Preschool Ltd celebrates their 10 year birthday!
With over 100 children and 20 staff enrolled on our books we are continuously growing and thriving day to day.
It is our aim to provide care and an early learning environment which is tailored to each individual child’s needs, in safe, secure, happy and relaxed surroundings.
We adhere to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) which is made up of a statutory framework for the Early Years. This sets the standards of learning, development and care for children from birth to five years.
We provide a place for your child to develop a strong sense of belonging and to build their self-esteem and confidence. With a high regard given to your child’s personalised learning and through encouragement we help them to reach their full potential socially, physically and intellectually.
We welcome the opportunity to work closely with parents and have an open door policy; which means you can phone, visit or stay at any time. Your child is allocated a Key Person who will build a secure relationship with them and compile their Learning Adventure Folder using a variety of narrative and photographic observations. We invite you to share with us any observations or personal achievements you may have noticed at home.
We adopt a positive approach in welcoming your child to Ossett Childcare & Pre-School. This ensures they settle into the nursery routines as easily as possible. We find a few short visits to the nursery prior to starting with us will help your child familiarise themselves with their new environment.

Nursery Software - Famly:
Famly is an all-in-one management and communication platform for parents and childcare providers and we hope that you as a parent will find Famly useful for communicating with Ossett Childcare & Pre-School Ltd. It allows everyday moments and children’s development to be shared with you in a safe and secure way. Famly also allows messaging back and forth between parents and nursery. Famly isn’t meant to replace face-to-face contact with us but should help to make communication simpler and more accessible at all times. This platform is used to inform parents of what their child has done throughout the day, such as sleeps, nappy changes, food eaten and activities.
