Who we are
Personal childcare, professionally run
Little Cubs Daycare is an Ofsted-registered childminding setting operating from approved non-domestic premises in Farnworth, Bolton.
That means your child gets the close, personal care of a childminder: the same familiar faces, their own routines and real attention, in a welcoming space set up just for children to play, learn and grow.
Personal care
A small team who get to know your child, and you, really well.
Nurturing relationships
Familiar, consistent faces every day help children feel safe and settled.
A smaller group
A calmer environment where every child is seen, heard and given time.
Individual routines
Naps, feeds, meals and needs follow your child, not a rigid timetable.
Learning through play
Play-based learning shaped by what your child loves and is ready for.
A warm, homely feel
The comfort and warmth of home, in a professional childcare setting.
Our learning spaces
