At Helmdon Acorns, every child is celebrated as a unique individual. We take pride in tailoring a personal learning journey that nurtures their curiosity, confidence, and love of discovery.
Our dedicated and highly qualified team create a safe, supportive environment where children feel valued and inspired to learn through play, exploration, and creativity.
Nestled in the heart of Helmdon’s beautiful countryside, our purpose-built preschool offers the perfect setting for children aged 2 until they begin their primary school adventure.

Our Ofsted Rating: ‘Good’ in All Areas.
We are proud to be registered with Ofsted and received a ‘Good’ rating in all areas during our inspection in February 2024.
Important Note on Our Registration: On the 2nd of September 2024, Helmdon Acorns transitioned to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). Because this change of legal status resulted in a new Ofsted registration number, our setting will be inspected again under this new registration in due course.
Please be assured that our staff, daily routines, and high standards of care remain unchanged from our previous registration. In the meantime, you can view the quality of our setting in our February 2024 inspection report below.
