About Firefly Childcare
We provide a home from home environment in a rural location. Firefly is in operation since April 2022 as a full day care service and prior to this we provided a Montessori sessional service and a childminding service for over 10 years. The ethos of both services has been and will continue to be holistic, providing for the child’s physical needs, social and emotional wellbeing.
Due to an increased need for full day care, a separate childminding service was opened along side the Montessori school. We have since increased our space and in April 2022 opened a full day care service that is Firefly Childcare, a family run service in a rural setting.
