Story of Jitterbugs
Our journey began in 1999, and since then, we’ve flourished into a thriving nursery in the Scarborough area. Our commitment to excellence in childcare has earned us the honour of receiving ‘outstanding’ ratings from Ofsted on four consecutive inspections. We are immensely proud of this recognition and strive to maintain this level of quality in everything we do on a daily basis.
At Jitterbugs, we wholeheartedly believe that early years play a vital role in a child’s life. These formative years are filled with exploration, learning and development. We are dedicated to providing a nurturing environment that fosters growth and supports each child’s unique along with supporting our parents/carers.
