About Kangaroo Kids Pre-school

Kangaroo Kids is a long-established Preschool offering childcare within the Yeadon and Guiseley Area.  Originally situated in Guiseley Town Hall and known as Guiseley Theatre Playgroup, the business was taken over by good friends Becky Hewitt and Sarah Beswick.  As the business grew, a new location was needed, and the business moved into Queensway Primary School.  Then in 2017, we opened our second setting in the area at Yeadon Westfield Infant School.

The senior members of our team are qualified to level 5 in childcare and all other team members are qualified to level 3 or studying towards that standard.  We take a pride in the high level of skills and knowledge that we can offer within our settings.  We are constantly striving to provide childcare of the highest level that is inclusive for all, and we have a great deal of experience in providing care for children with additional needs.

The Kangaroo Kids team are always striving for excellence.  At our last OFSTED inspection, in October 2021, we were rated "Good" in all areas.  Copies of our OFSTED reports are available by clicking the OFSTED icon, visiting our OFSTED tab on this site or by visiting the OFSTED website.
