Abc Childminding Services

ABC childminding is located on the border of Highcliffe and Mudeford and offers friendly, flexible and affordable childcare in a 'home from home' environment. Care provided is of a very high standard and flexible hours can be accommodated. Children are encouraged to have fun and be independent through play and we attend various playgroups to increase their social awareness. We also enjoy regular trips to the beach, library, local parks and The New Forest. Within the setting we have a light and spacious playroom with free-flow access into the garden area. A selection of varied resources allow extensive opportunities for children to learn and flourish, keeping small hands and busy minds occupied!
