Cheltenham pre-schools

[Millyboluba]

Hi there,

We are moving to Cheltenham next month and I'd like to get my 3yr old son settled at a pre-school before new baby arrives in July!

The two closest to our new house are LaRoche (Hales Road) and Little Angels (Keynsham Rd). I'd be interested in any thoughts on either of these....or indeed any recommendations for a Cheltenham preschool. Looking for year round opening, not school term time.

Thanks very much!

Hi, am a regular but name changed as I don't like to be too specific about where I live. Have no experience of either of those (have you checked out the ofsted website for latest inspection reports?) but remember not picking LaRoche for some reason myself. Have heard good things about Circle though (in Pitville Circus) which is not that far from you either. We picked one near work in the end so not in you area.

I have a DD about to turn 3 and DC2 on the way in September so CAT me if you want a chat or advice. Sadly we are actually moving away from the area where you are moving to, to the other side of Cheltenham but I have a DD about to turn 3 and DC2 on the way in September so CAT me if you want a chat or advice.

Thanks - have just had a look at Circus. Looks like a lovely setting and the website is great...but it doesn't come out as well on ofsted as the other two. I will certainly go and visit all 3.

Thanks for your offer of advice. Any recommendations for playgroups etc?
