Early Education
All children are eligible to attend a free part time early education place from the term after their third birthday until they start school.
Contact Buckinghamshire Family Information Service to find an up to date list of where places are available in your area.
Childcare
Choosing a childcare place for your child is very important. The place you choose should be somewhere your child feels welcome, comfortable and safe. It should provide opportunities for them to develop and learn in stimulating, varied and enjoyable ways. There are many different types of childcare available and you need to decide which type or types will best suit the individual needs of you and your child.
Contact Buckinghamshire Family Information Service to find an up to date list of where places are available in your area.
