Welcome to St John's Childcare in Langdon Hills

At St John’s Childcare, we work in partnership with parents to ensure children receive the best possible start to their educational journey.

We understand that the early years’ stage is a time of rapid development and we aim to provide the right activities and play to develop skills in children.

We ensure that we create the perfect environment for children in all stages of development. We have 4 childcare  classrooms ranging from 12 months to 4 years old and we have an Out of school wraparound club for children from reception – year 6 for Great Berry and Lincewood schools. We have a spacious garden area that encourages children to develop and explore.

We offer an outstanding educational programme, including our School-ready Programme, ensuring children have the best possible start to their educational journey. Our staff team are highly skilled and will ensure all children are safe, happy and develop a love of learning.

Key Person Approach

Each child is assigned a key person at St John’s Childcare who is introduced to the child and parents when the children start with us. The key person helps ensure that every child’s learning and care is tailored to meet their individual needs. The key person provides a firm bridge between nursery and home life and supports parents in guiding their child’s development at home as well as helping families engage with more specialist support if necessary.

Our Vision

St John’s Childcare Vision

We are committed to providing a stimulating environment designed to nurture the leaders of tomorrow. We aim to empower the child to achieve success and contribute positively to the richness of community.
