Buttercups & Buttercups Jr
Our nurturing classroom provides a warm and engaging environment for children aged 18 to 36 months, fostering early development through play, exploration, and care.

Our children are the heartbeat of Buttercups. Their individuality, characters and needs are acknowledged, met and reflected in our ‘In the Moment’ planning and room layout.
Having just ten children in each session creates a settled and familiar environment, where they learn to take turns, understand empathy for each other and provides the opportunity to develop deep and meaningful relationships with their peers.
We welcome and create opportunities for our parents to be part of their children’s day by organising activities such as our Autumn Treasure Bags.
Having three members of permanent staff in the room ensures consistency and familiarity for the children and parents creating a warm and welcome environment where parents often tell us, “We feel like we are visiting family.”
