Meerkats

Out of School Club • Breakfast Club • After School Club • Holiday Club

Our Meerkats room offers a fun, relaxed, and welcoming space for children aged 4 to 11, who attend before and after school or join us during the holidays. Designed with older children in mind, Meerkats provides the perfect balance between independence, creativity, and comfort — a place where friendships grow, ideas come alive, and every child can unwind after the structure of the school day.

Before School Breakfast Club

Our Breakfast Club gives children a calm, positive start to their morning. We provide a nutritious breakfast, gentle activities, and a relaxed atmosphere to help children ease into the day. Children can play, chat with friends, or enjoy quiet time before we safely accompany them to school.

After School Club

After a busy day at school, children need space to relax, explore, and recharge — and Meerkats offers exactly that. Our after school sessions include:

  • Creative arts and crafts
  • Construction and STEM challenges
  • Cosy corners for reading or downtime
  • Outdoor play and group games
  • Opportunities for free choice and child-led activities

We follow the children’s interests, giving them room to express themselves and develop independence while still receiving support from our practitioners.

Holiday Club

During school holidays, Meerkats becomes a lively hub of adventure, creativity, and exploration. Our Holiday Club offers a variety of themed activities, outdoor adventures, crafts, baking, science experiments, and plenty of time for children to pursue their own ideas. Each day is planned to be exciting, enriching, and memorable, while still offering the relaxed feel older children enjoy.

A Space Designed for Growing Minds

The Meerkats environment is warm, welcoming, and full of opportunities for children to choose the kind of play or relaxation that suits them best. We encourage independence, teamwork, and problem-solving, while giving children the freedom to simply be themselves in a safe, friendly setting.

Our practitioners build positive, respectful relationships with the children, ensuring they feel heard, supported, and involved in shaping the activities on offer.

At Robin’s Childcare, Meerkats is a place where older children can laugh, learn, make friends, try new things — and feel right at home.
