We believe that play is an essential part of every child’s learning. Our club has its own space which is well equipped for both, indoor and outdoor play activities with a wonderful range of resources.

We are registered to provide sessional care for children aged between 3 – 11 years of age. We work under the guidelines set by the Childcare Act 2006. Our staff/child ratio adheres to the EYFS framework and age applicable ratios throughout the provision. Volunteers and students are in addition to these ratios.

All staff, volunteers and students undergo the stringent safer recruitment process of Richmond Hill Primary Academy. We operate to a high level of health and safety to ensure that standards are met and maintained.

Hillbillies is here to help those parents/carers whose working or training hours lead to difficulties with out-of-school childcare as well as those parents who feel that their children would benefit from attending our fantastic Hillbillies provision.

We encourage parents/carers to be involved as much as possible. If you have any suggestions, comments or problems regarding Hillbillies or your child, please feel free to discuss them with the staff at any time.
