A Little About Us

Established in September 1999, Heathcot Preschool is a warm, welcoming and well-established early years setting located on the border of Coppice and Werneth in Oldham.

For over 25 years, we have proudly supported local children and families by providing high quality childcare and early education in a safe, nurturing and inspiring environment where children learn through play.

We believe every child is unique and deserves opportunities to explore, discover and develop at their own pace. Through meaningful experiences and positive relationships, we support children to become confident, independent and lifelong learners.

Our Vision

At Heathcot Preschool, we are committed to continually developing and improving our provision because every child deserves the very best start in life.

We recognise that each child is an individual with their own strengths, interests and needs, and we create an environment where children feel valued, supported and encouraged to reach their full potential.

We believe parents and carers are a child’s first and most important educators. By working in partnership with families, we build strong relationships that support children’s learning, development and wellbeing both at preschool and at home.
