Jubilee Children's Centre

A child

This modern, purpose-built children's centre in the heart of the west central Halifax community offers a light and airy environment in which children can be cared for whilst learning and developing to their full potential. A well-equipped play area offers a safe and stimulating space for children to explore the natural outdoors. Plans have recently been drawn up to further develop the surrounding area to provide play opportunities for older children.

Places are available in the nursery for children aged birth to 5 years.

Jubilee Children's Centre achieved Step One of the 'Steps to Quality' Quality Assurance Scheme in March 2007, thus guaranteeing a high level of excellence in the services they offer parents and children.

Facilities offered by Sure Start in the centre include an on-site ante-natal service, baby clinics, toddler groups, a fathers' group, a children's library and adult learning groups.

The convenient town centre location offers easy access and on-site parking.
