Frequently asked questions
Good questions, straight answers
When will Meadows Tree open?
We are preparing the setting and completing Ofsted registration now, with opening planned for 2026. Register your interest and we’ll keep you updated at every milestone, including open days.
What ages do you take?
Our nursery welcomes children from 6 months to 5 years across the Baby Room, Toddler Room and Preschool. School-age children can join our After School Club and Holiday Club.
Do you accept funded hours?
Yes — we plan to offer funded places, including 15 and 30 hours entitlements and 2-year-old funding, alongside Tax-Free Childcare. See
Fees & Funding for details.
What is your settling-in process?
Every child receives settling-in visits before they start, shaped around their needs — short stays building to full sessions, with their key person alongside throughout. We never rush this.
How do you keep children safe?
Safeguarding leads everything we do: rigorous safer recruitment, ongoing staff training, secure premises, clear procedures and a culture where every concern is acted on immediately.
What about food and allergies?
Meals are freshly prepared on site. We cater for all dietary requirements and allergies with individual care plans agreed with you before your child starts.
Is Meadows Tree a religious setting?
We are inspired by Christian values — kindness, honesty, service and respect — and we warmly welcome families of every faith and none. Every family belongs at Meadows Tree.
