Foley House Children'S Centre

About Foley House Children'S Centre

We are based at Foley House in Newmarket and offer a number of universal and targeted sessions for families with children from 0-5 years old.

Foley House Children'S Centre Description

Children's Centres offer a range of friendly integrated services and information for families with children from birth to five years old in Suffolk. They are linked with health services, training and employment opportunities and many other organisations to provide a wide range of services for families.

We offer a Family Support Service including home visits where we talk through parenting and other issues on a one-to-one basis.

Our sessions are open to all families with children aged up to five years and include a range of different activities including stories and nursery rhymes, sensory /messy play, healthy eating and baby treasure baskets. We also have a free Toy Library available and you can borrow a selection of Suffolk library books from our Children's Centre.

We are part of the Children's and Young People's Service in Suffolk which aims to enable all children to aspire to and achieve their full potential giving them the basis for a successful life as active members of the community.

Get ready to 'Follow The Yellow Brick Road' and join in with our Nature Scavenger Hunt today - Monday 13th August. We will meet at Foley House at 1:45pm and take a walk down the Yellow Brick Road. Join us and explore the environment around us. See what plant life, insects and animals you can find along the way. Why not bring the whole family ? Remember to dress for the weather and bring plenty to drink. No need to book just turn up. See you all on later :) :) :)

We have a great time at creepy crawlers and little one loves spending time with her dad at the sata dads group, just a shame it is only once a month. Lovely staff, really friendly and helpful. :)

User

We go 2 most groups and the boys really enjoy it! The staff are great and the boys love them!

User

Very helpful staff, great groups. A real help for new mums, it's great that you can just pop in to feed, change nappies etc.

User

User

Fantastical Wiggle and Jiggle session this week. Nice to have a bit of structure and Michael with his enthusiasm and energy was great fun! Same again next week please! ���

User

I dont like the fact there is only one group for children who have a younger sibling other than the one here otherwise you have to go to Mildenhall or Brandon when it a distance to cover for the amount of time for one group. Why should mum's that have this problem spend a fortune on petrol or find someone to look after one of their children because you cant make available more groups that dont have an age limit on things like 0-2years or 2-5year as it makes it very difficult for some kids to interact and socialise that as a children's centre are meant to promote.
