Information for families in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole

Feast, Michelle

I provide a relaxed, fun, home from home setting, where all children are treated with equal concern. I allow children in my care freedom to explore, grow and learn through play based activities and outings. Multi cultural activities are provided; children can learn to respect our multi cultural society through books, music, musical instruments, puppets & dolls, food, celebrating festivals & art & crafts. I work closely with parents to ensure their children are happy and receive the best care for their individual needs, free from discrimination.
