Trelya’s ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted registered specialist nursery provides individualised support to pregnant women and children aged 0 to 4 and their parents. Support takes a ‘360-degree holistic approach’ considering and working within all areas of each child’s life – home, nursery and community – providing continuity and serving as a link between the different aspects.

Through Skylar, each child engages in 15 hours a week of individualised support across the EYFS curriculum and additional services include family support, partnership work, therapies, and home visiting. Our unique working model has evolved from grass roots experience, whole families are offered support, interventions and opportunities – providing a family wide positive impact on health and wellbeing. 

One of Skylar’s key aims is to address the high levels of educational disenfranchisement and structural inequalities experienced by the local community. For example only 31% of 5 year olds from this community achieve expected levels in EYFS prime areas compared to 70% nationally (Department for Education 2019). In contrast, to date, most children have been assessed as ‘school ready’ when they leave Skylar to begin primary school, in line with the national figures.

Skylar is staffed by an experienced multi-disciplinary team, ensuring we are meeting need in the most holistic way possible.
