About Us
Established in September 1968 our original location was the Y.M.C.A Park Road, Kingswood. Here we held a playgroup and a parent and toddler group. In 1999 we relocated to our current location, Kingswood Congregational Church and in April 2002 we became a pre-school, and enhanced our service from sessions only to full day care. In January 2020 we have extended our pre school further by providing care for babies from 6 months old, therefore having a nursery element. The pre-school currently caters for babies/children aged 6 months to 5 years old and offers various sessions from Monday to Friday 9.00am to 12.00pm, 12.00pm-3.00pm, or full days 9am-3.00pm. We also offer an early 8.00am start or a later finish at 4.00pm. We offer all Nursery Education grant funding and we can offer the 30 hours funding for those eligible.
The pre-school is owned and managed by Nicola Long, Nicola has owned Playaway Pre-School Ltd since September 2011 and successfully runs the pre-school along with her 6 members of qualified staff. The team work hard together, to provide a safe, happy, stimulating and caring environment for the children.
