We have strict policies in place to provide your child with the best care and protection against injury and potential sickness.

What our
parents say...

"Both of my children had a fab time at Puddleducks. They still talk about things they did and the people they met while they were there. Puddleducks staff are very dedicated and caring. The experience made the transition to school seamless and so much less stressful for them (and for me!)"
Kate Steward
"Puddleducks provided my twins with a safe and secure environment. Their key worker was great and posted many tapestry observations so we could see their progress. When they transferred to Mulbarton Primary School the routines and practices from Puddleducks enabled them to transition easily and with no tears!"
Sarah Woodwell
"Our boys have loved Puddleducks. The eldest is now 7 and still wants to play there when I drop my youngest off at Breakfast Club. Our little one has made so many friends which has massively helped with the excitement of school. Plus he learnt how to put his coat on in a very unique but super easy way... all thanks to the staff."
