Childcare Agencies in
Fordingbridge

Come and meet the team who will be nurturing your little one in our cosy converted old school building on the Dorset/Hampshire boarder in the rural village of Alderholt, Near Fordingbridge. You will not miss us with our Mongolian yurt on the field and our woodland classroom with no windows or doors opposite.

Set idylically in a Georgian country house surrounded by 2.5 acres of lawns, paddocks, woodland and children's gardens, including our paddock with Monet the miniature Shetland pony, Milly and Splodge our Ryeland sheep, our small flock of chickens and Daisy our miniature dexter cow providing us with daily fresh eggs for the children to collect.

We have five rooms at Orchard: Pips, Blossoms, Red Apples, Green Apples and our popular after school club, Orchard Explorers. Each room is dedicated to the different ages and stages of the children, but with our flexible approach, we do not move up children according to their date of birth, but instead when they are ready for the move into the next group.

Established 30 years ago Chalke Valley Playschool or 'Chalkies' is an Ofsted rated good pre-school situated right next to Broad Chalke Primary School in the beautiful Chalke Valley.
