In the charity's own words

We offer excellent quality childcare in a safe and rural environment. We pride ourselves on low ratios and have a maximum of 18 children at any one time. We are extremely affordable and support local employment for families who otherwise would not be able to go to work. We also link with the Governments 30 hour free childcare offer to make it always the better option of going back to work in term
