Chuckles Nurseries Locations

Baldhu

Ofsted Outstanding

Chuckles Day Nursery and Pre-school at Trescol Vean, Baldhu is situated in a converted school. It is set in the heart of the countryside, overlooking the Carnon Valley, but only 5 minutes away from RCH, Truro College and Truro City. Chuckles at Baldhu is also very well situated for parents travelling between Camborne/Redruth and Falmouth/Penryn. The nursery opened in October 2005 and is registered for 45 children. The children enjoy being able to see which animals are grazing in the fields around us. We have an extremely large outdoor area which we make use of every day. We also have a very large ‘off road’ parking area. Chuckles at Baldhu is run by an enthusiastic group of nursery nurses, led by a team of very senior experienced staff, one of whom has her Early Years Professional (EYP) Status.

Perranwell Station

Ofsted Good

Chuckles Nursery and Pre-school at Station Road, Perranwell Station is situated in a converted Methodist Chapel in the centre of the village. The nursery opened in August 2001 and is registered for 50 children. The nursery provides care for children from a wide catchment area including Stithians, Falmouth, Ponsanooth and Mylor as well as the village itself. Being situated close to the A39 (Truro to Falmouth road) we are just 2 minutes away from the Perranarworthal junction. This means that we are conveniently situated for the Penryn Campus of Falmouth University. You will find a friendly, experienced team of staff that includes a qualified teacher to care and nurture your child. We also offer a breakfast and after school club during term time for 4 -11 year olds, from 8-8.50am and 3 - 5.45pm hrs. We operate a walking bus to and from Perranarworthal CP School to our setting. We recognise that school age children have already had a very structured day, so we offer activities that allow them to choose what they want to do and if they want to relax then that is alright too! Activities include art and craft, Lego, books, PS2, Wii, table-top football and traditional board games.

Free Introductory Sessions

If you decide to let us care for your child at Chuckles we will take time to settle both you and your child into nursery. The nursery manager will arrange suitable days and times for you to initially attend with your child, then for your child to be left with us knowing that you will be returning in a short period. These sessions are tailored to each individual child. We feel that each of our settings benefit from their own individual characteristics. We hope that you will come and see for yourself.

Ideally situated for commuters travelling to and from Truro and outlying areas.

Parents as Partners

We have regular parents evenings for you to discuss your childs progress. Parents are welcome to come into the setting at any time and join in with activities or provide activities themselves for the children to join in with; maybe you could come and talk to the children about your job, hobby or religious festivals that you celebrate at home. Children’s key workers are always available to speak to parents and share their child’s learning journey with them.
