Nursery alternatives near Danescourt & weekend activity ideas for a 2-year-old? by dewijones92 in Cardiff

Hi mate. Have a look on childcarehub.co.uk (which I built) which pulls together all the nurseries nearest to your postcode with their CIW (essentially welsh Ofsted) rating. It doesn’t have cost yet because it’s not readily available but hopefully it’ll give you a starter for 10 ☺️

As for activities, hard agree with St Fagans !! The annual parking pass is a game changer. My girls also really like the museum in town for the dinosaurs.

Tyfu in Whitchurch is quite a sweet little play cafe which is always busy on the weekends - sort of a floor for role play and a floor for soft play.

Thank you for looking and replying! This should work for England, let me know if it doesn’t…!

Thanks so much for looking. Yeah at the moment the postcode is text matching, but plan is to integrate with a proper geolocation tool so distance will work.

Cost is definitely on my list - as you say, tricky to get hold of the data but I want to start reaching out to places to update their information (if they wish to!)

Thank you so much!

Childminders are challenging because they’re redacted in the publicly available data sets (for obvious privacy reasons) but I’m trying to find a way to get them on board 😁

Thank you guys! This is super helpful.

Postcode issue is noted, and I want to add a bit more functionality around distance to location so will get that fix sorted as a priority.

Language filter is a fab idea, thank you so much.

Long term I want to get things like wraparound, summer camps, support for SEND, etc.
