Flying Start

Flying Start provides free help and support for children under four in certain areas. It aims to improve their chances and give them a ‘flying start’ when they go to school. This scheme is funded by Welsh Government.

The Flying Start childcare team are highly qualified and experienced in working with children.  They work closely with the Flying Start multi-agency team and the settings benefit from support from the Speech and Language Therapy team, Educational Psychologists and Advisory Teacher. 

The team build excellent relationships with parents/carers and will provide regular support and guidance regarding your children’s development and progress.

The support includes:

• high quality, part-time childcare for 2-3 year olds
• a health visitor to help with any issues you have
• access to parenting support
• advice and support with early language development

If you have concerns about your child's talking, please speak to your Health Visitor or childcare manager who will then will signpost you to The Flying Start team.
