Employer Description:
uttons Preschool is a private provider delivering preschool and extended services care across Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire, currently operating from 14 sites. Buttons was established in 2012 following the decision of the founding director to set up a preschool that was inclusive and catered to the needs of all of the local children, this followed a series of meetings which highlighted that children in areas of need and those socially excluded because of family dynamics, disability or other cause were not always able to access services, the first setting opened in 2012 in Water Eaton. Buttons has gained a reputation as a locally “trusted provider”, our flexibility in terms of hours and sessions, our ability to support children from varying backgrounds with needs outside the usual preschool remit and our well trained and supported staff are just three of the many reasons we are the preferred provider for many families in the localities in which we currently service.
