Little Prodigies

What it’s like

Term-time developmental sessions for babies and toddlers, twice a week, built around getting little ones nursery-ready.

This one's a structured programme rather than a drop-in play session. Sessions run 60 minutes at a time, with activities pitched to your child's age and developmental stage, so what happens in the room shifts as they grow from baby to toddler.

You commit to twice a week during term time, either Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Thursday depending on what's got space. That's more of a rhythm than a one-off outing, and it suits parents looking for something consistent rather than a spontaneous morning out. Sessions run 9:30am to midday on weekdays, so it's a morning slot rather than an all-day thing.

The bit that sets it apart from a standard toddler group is the "full package" they describe, a hybrid offer meant to ease the move into nursery school. Alongside the weekly sessions you get home learning materials and advice for parents.

If you've got a nanny doing the school run instead of you, that's fine, they're welcome to bring your child along in your place. Worth knowing this is aimed squarely at the very early years, babies through to around age four.
