Childcare & Nursery Provision
The activities and groups run by Foleshiil Children's Centre can all play vital roles in making parenting an enjoyable experience. Stay & Play, Together into, Wiggle & Giggle, Carers Stay & Play, Coffee Afternoon, Sure Tots, Toy Library etc can all encourage interaction with your children so that you can be there to watch them grow, learn and develop. Children have a fantastic time at these kinds of activities and they can explore their own personalities and strengths and have fun playing with children of similar ages. They can develop social skills, learn how to interact with children of their own age and start to develop their independence skills.
