Early Years Stay and Play Sessions 2026 - SOUTHERN EAST

** SESSIONS ARE STRICTLY BY INVITE ONLY **

EA Early Years Services have developed a series of Stay and Play sessions for children notified to the service by Educational Psychology.

Each series of stay and play consists of three sessions – one per week running across 3 consecutive weeks.

The purpose of the sessions are to create an environment where you and your child can come and engage in play activities with the support of highly trained and experienced staff.

Through the sessions we will explore the importance of play and will be available to give guidance on areas that you as parents/carers may need some support with e.g. toileting, language development, sharing or self help skills.

* Please note -

Audience - Nursery and Playgroup children and their parent/carer

Spaces are limited to 10 - if there are no slots available reserve places can be booked and you will be notified if a space becomes available. 

It is also preferable that parents are available for ALL 3 sessions
