Finding childcare that works for some families is difficult, if you work shifts, grandparents with changing plans or work in education yourselves.

Our Hessle site can offer flexibility in our childcare setting and we do still have some flexible or term time only places available for all children from 6 weeks to pre-school age.

Please get in touch with us on 01482 330522 or email waterside@tiptoes.co.uk to see if we can help.

HESSLE GETTING BACK TO NATURE IN SEPTEMBER!

As autumn approaches it’s a great time to explore all things rural and countryside related, and the children in our nurseries always get the opportunity to do just that.

Our Hessle nursery and pre-school on Livingstone Road will be teaching our wonderful children about life in the countryside and what happens on a farm.

September will be filled with a host of autumn-based activities, such as like using apples to make prints with autumn colours, using cutting skills by cutting out different animals and putting them in the correct habitats for the autumn season.

Developing fine motor skills is important using diverse things like making their own Incy Wincey Spiders and threading spaghetti through colanders. We plan to use The Tiptoe Bears story week as an excuse for messy time making bear faces for the story, ‘we’re going on a bear hunt’ using chocolate spread, bananas and blueberries! We’re sure you can imagine just how much mess will be had getting chocolate spread all over our fingers!

September is always a fun-packed month which starts with sunny days and ends with the nights drawing in. But we don’t mind that because it gives us an excuse to do lots of cosy autumn and winter activities in the weeks ahead, so make sure you watch out for those!
