Our Baby Room

Parkside Baby Room is located within the grounds of Parkside Academy, offering a calm and nurturing environment designed to support the development of children aged 3 months to 2 years.

If you would like your child to attend Parkside Baby Room, please contact the school office to arrange a visit.

We welcome both funded and privately paid places. 

30-Hour Funded Childcare

Eligible working families in England may apply for 30 hours of funded childcare. To check your eligibility and apply, please visit:
👉 30 hours childcare for eligible working families in England | Childcare Choices

At Parkside Academy Baby Room, a full day runs from 8:45am to 3:15pm. Families can also opt to add breakfast and/or afterschool club sessions for an additional charge.

Children staying for the full day will receive lunchtime provision free of charge, meaning that children accessing their 30-hour entitlement will benefit from almost 33 hours per week of care and learning at no extra cost.

During lunchtime, parents are asked to provide a packed lunch.

15-Hour Funded Childcare

For families who are not eligible for the 30-hour entitlement, or those who choose to use fewer hours, we also offer the universal 15-hour entitlement. Parents can choose either morning or afternoon sessions, and may also purchase additional sessions beyond their 15-hour allocation.

If you have any questions or would like support with your application, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
