Carousel childcare (Budleigh Salterton) Ltd. was established in 2003 in order to carry on the tradition of a playgroup/pre-school, which had been in place for 35 years. The building is in the grounds of St. Peter’s C of E Primary School, which can be accessed from Moor lane.
Carousel is fully registered with OFSTED and provides care for up to 24 children per session and offers a range of affordable quality childcare facilities from babies to eleven years olds:
- Day care and Education for 0-5 year olds
- Before and After School Clubs
- Holiday Clubs
- Babysitting Service
- Respite childcare
Carousel is working in close partnership with St. Peter’s C of E Primary School, with whom we share the grounds, care of children, some resources and mostly the common vision of providing a seamless transition for children between care, nursery and school.
Our aim is to encourage independence, self-discipline and a positive attitude to learning. Our objectives are to make children happy and to ensure that their individual needs and potential are recognised and extended. We believe that children learn best through play and enjoyment. "Play is emotional and it helps shape the architecture of the brain" (Stuart Lester and Wendy Russell, Play for change, 2008)
Our staff are carefully selected, CRB checked, qualified and highly motivated in making your child’s stay at Carousel the most positive experience. We aim to ensure children feel happy and their individual needs and potential are recognised. We also aim to inspire self-confidence and a healthy curiosity through a natural extension of the home environment and with the active involvement of parents/carers.
Our breakfast clubbers enjoy varied menu, they have a choice of plain toast, scrumptious scrambled egg on toast or wide range of cereals, fruit and drinks on offer every day. After breakfast children brush their teeth with their own toothbrush. At Carousel we are very lucky and we have constant access to the great outdoors and we use the outdoors as much as we can as the extension to our setting.
