Fiddlesticks Childcare is based at Becky's home in Marske-by-the-Sea, we are conveniently located for easy access to the park, woods & beach.
Our Playroom
We have a dedicated playroom on the 2nd floor of the house, this room is equipped with a wide range of quality resources and toys for younger children. From the window we have a full view of the garden (and the local football ground), beyond that the sea. The children love having free access to a wide range of mathematical, science and literacy resources as well as books, mark making, our nature table and role play areas. We stimulate the children's imagination with many themed boxes which are rotated regularly.

Our Play Garden
We have a good sized garden which is divided into several different 'areas'. Our play garden consists of a large patio area and lawn which is accessed directly from the back of the house. Children will be able to enjoy free play in this area, we have a sand box, water table, play house, nature hide, planting areas, natural construction, nature kitchen, an outdoor activity table as well as many outdoor toys. We try to make sure we spend a good portion of each day making use of our outdoor resources (or taking a trip out to explore the natural world). Our garden is used to explore our world and broaden children's learning experiences. We are constantly re-developing our outdoor areas to create more outdoor and natural activities for children to explore.

Family RoomWe have a warm and cosy family room which is utilised mainly for our before and after school children and during bad weather. We have a range of books for older children as well as board games, kindles and Lego. We also have a toy box and regularly change it's contents. This room is also equipped with a monitor with amazon prime and a DVD player for fun film sessions.

Kitchen & Dining RoomThe kitchen/diner is located at the back of the house and is where we prepare and eat our meals. The children also enjoy using this room for baking and craft activities.

Pets
Our love of the natural world is evident in the range of animals we keep in our home. We have a beautiful dog who lives with us and loves to join us on walks to the beach or woods. We also own two young tortoises who live in the family room as well as several rabbits that enjoy the garden. The children love to see the animals and many enjoy joining in with their care.
