Barkway Toddlers Stay & Play

Our stay-and-play baby and toddler group welcomes  parents, carers and children to the village hall every Wednesday morning for play, tea and a chat. We particularly enjoy welcoming new mums and dads with babies who are looking to meet fellow new parents.

The group is run by a member of the preschool staff and takes place in term time from 9.30am to 11.30am.  You'll find us at Barkway Village Hall and the session costs £3 per child and £1 for each sibling.  We even run sessions through some of the school holidays - join our Facebook group for updates Barkway Baby and Toddler Group
