The day-to-day business is carried out by a brilliant team of qualified, capable and caring professionals. We have a lovely single-storey setting, with some excellent outdoor space too. Paddocks is situated on Paddock Road close to St. John’s School and within walking distance of Wallingford town centre. The pre-school has an excellent reputation for building strong staff-children relationships as a result of its small size and nurturing environment. Parental input is also actively encouraged and good links develop naturally between parents and the Paddocks team. Paddocks follow the Early Years Foundation Stage and aims to provide a safe, secure and caring environment where every child is valued as an individual. Through a meaningful partnership with parents, we strive to make the bridge between home and school as smooth and enjoyable as possible. We create opportunities for the children to learn through their play and develop a growing independence and positive self-image.
We would like to tell you a little about who we are, what we are like, and what is going on at the moment. Paddocks is a long-established Pre-school, a stone's throw from St. Johns Primary School, near the centre of Wallingford. We're a charity run by a committee, which most often made up of parents of current Paddocks children.
