.Pre-school children and their families will always have diverse needs and it is the childcare provider's role to understand this and to take reasonable steps to meet these needs.
In a buoyant economic climate, when nursery places are at a premium, it is harder to meet individual needs. But in the current climate there may be more opportunities and a greater business need to adapt services to meet families' changing needs.
Kiddikins Nursery has been operating as a not-for-profit community organisation for 19 years. It is open from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday throughout the year, offering 24 places for children aged two to five years and 120 places for those from birth to two years. The nursery is now located in a children's centre in the central estate area of Hartlepool.
