Looking for a place where your child can grow and develop?
After a pre-school with a dedicated team of staff and plenty of outdoor space?

Dodleston Pre-School, based just outside Chester, may be the one for you (and yes, we’re based in England! so you can use government funding where applicable).
Established over 35 years ago a few miles from Chester and North Wales, the pre-school is open 4 days a week. Here, your child can explore the great outdoors in a beautiful setting, learn and develop at their own pace and get prepared for the step up to ‘big school’.
Our professional and qualified ‘purple ladies’ would love to show you around our space or have a conversation about how we can help your child.

Our indoor and outdoor spaces
We understand the importance of both indoor and outdoor environments in a child’s development. Our indoor space is bright and welcoming, equipped with a variety of activities to engage young minds. But it’s our outdoor area that truly sets us apart. Children spend most of their time outside, rain or shine, exploring our:
- 🛠️ Construction zone: Build and create with tyres and roadwork signs.
- 🐞 Bug zone: Discover insects and learn about nature.
- 🍳 Mud kitchen: Cook up imaginative recipes with real utensils.
- 🏖️ Sand pits: Dig, build, and play
- 🌱 Gardening area: Plant seeds and watch them grow
- 🎢 Climbing frames and slides: Develop physical skills and confidence.
With a mix of concrete and grassed areas, our outdoor space is designed to support a range of activities, from active play to quiet reflection.
Take the time to browse our website to discover how we run, as well as our pricing, and don’t forget to take a read of our blog for pre-school related tips, advice and information!
