The Childcare will be provided at:

- Cylch Meithrin Y Fenni, Ysgol Y Fenni, Abergavenny
- Monmouth Community Under Fives Playgroup,
- Wiggles and Giggles Playgroup, Overmonnow Primary School, Monmouth
Before your child begins playgroup, you will have the opportunity to meet the staff at your home with your child and also at the group. We hope this will help your child to settle easily. We will provide an “All about me” booklet for you to fill in. This will help us to understand your child and to be aware of your child’s likes, dislikes and interests. The playgroups will be able to offer up to twelve and a half hours each week over five days. They will remain open for 42 weeks of the year.
