"When I started Barnowls Nursery in 1991, I was determined to provide quality care for children in home-from-home surroundings. What I needed was a setting that felt safe and secure for both parents and children alike; providing a stimulating environment, home-cooked food, and room to run and play. Over the years we have grown and moved forward in many different ways, however my basic philosophy remains the same; if the children are happy, then so are the parents. In a changing age it is comforting to know that our original high standards still remain, and our reputation grows from strength to strength." Colleen Snookes (Proprietor)
