Quality Before and After School Clubs and School Holiday Clubs

I have nothing but praise for the Lakeview Dawn til Dusk Before and After School Club.

My children have been attending regularly for nearly three years and they absolutely love going. The staff are extremely understanding and accommodating of the needs of the children, and have a warm and friendly approach. The staff have always communicated really well with me about any issues or concerns about my children, as well as passing on nice things to me about their day.

I have always felt very confident about my children’s safety and wellbeing while they are at the club as it is very professionally run, but also maintains a lovely personal touch. For example, when I was unable to attend an assembly that my daughter was performing in, a staff member from Dawn Til Dusk attended instead and it meant such a lot to my daughter to have a friendly face in the audience.

The equipment and activities available to the children are varied and excellent, and they love doing the different craft or creative activities that are organised through the term. My children love the different themed sessions and also enjoy all the fun activities available in the excellent outdoor space including the bouncy castle and ride-on toys.

My children are always very happy and well looked after and the The staff always have an eye for the individual needs of each child, and are always ready with encouragement, a hug, a job or an idea depending on what is needed. For example, my son can get anxious, and it helps if he can have a little job to do, so the staff are great at keeping him busy with fun jobs and provide lots of encouragement and positive feedback so that he feels really proud of himself.

My daughter can be very shy and takes a long time to get used to people, but she has really bonded with the staff at club. She feels relaxed and happy chatting with them and making friends with the other children, and we are delighted with how much she enjoys it.
I would not hesitate in recommending the Lakeview Dawn til Dusk Before and After School Club to other parents. In fact, even if my work patterns changed, my kids would still be desperate to go to club, as they have such a great time there!

Keep up the good work!
