Ark Start, John Archer

Ark Start is about so much more than childcare.

We are building a community where your child feels happy, safe and secure. Our curriculum is structured around storytelling and follows the Department for Education’s Early Years Foundation Stage statutory framework. Our practice has grown out of our work with Ark schools and our desire that every child should have the best start in life.

Led by qualified teachers and highly-trained staff, our nursery creates a nurturing space which emphasis on joy, creativity, play and independence,

Our values underpin everything that we do to enable your child to grow, thrive and learn in a happy, stimulating, safe and secure environment. Ark Start is about giving your child not only the start they need but the one they deserve.
