Chelmo

At Chelmo Kidzone we are committed to going the extra mile for every child and family. We provide high-quality care and education for children aged 3 months to 4 years, creating a warm, nurturing, and inspiring environment where every child feels safe, valued, and supported to thrive.

Our curriculum follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Statutory Framework (2025) and supports children’s emotional, social, physical, and cognitive development through a play-based, child-centred approach. We recognise that every child is unique and plan meaningful experiences around their individual interests, needs, and stage of development.

We promote the four key EYFS principles:

  • A Unique Child
  • Positive Relationships
  • Enabling Environments
  • Learning and Development

Through purposeful play and carefully planned experiences, we support all seven areas of learning and help children grow into confident, independent learners ready for school.

From babies to preschoolers, we provide age-appropriate experiences that nurture curiosity, independence, communication, and resilience. Our experienced practitioners use a responsive “planning in the moment” approach, building strong relationships and extending children’s learning naturally through play and conversation.

Alongside our nursery provision, we offer a Breakfast Club and Afterschool Club for children aged 3 months to 11 years, including collection from Chelmondiston Primary School at 3:15pm.

At Chelmo Kidzone, we create a nurturing foundation where children feel confident, curious, and ready for their next stage of learning.
