Storytime

Your child can really benefit because the story time sessions are supported and interactive session.

Our educators choose books to suit your child’s needs and adjust the way they help your child to take part in the story telling. To join an online storytime click here.

Online Playgroups
EarlyEd has been running our supported playgroups online whenever we are in lockdown. These supported playgroups are just right if you are worried about your child’s development or if your child has a disability. The playgroups make learning fun because we adapt activities to suit the individual needs of the children attending and we help parents to support their child so they learn more.
Book in by calling us or filing in this form.
Register for any of our online playgroups. They are on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday, 9:30-10:30am.
