Ask about safeguarding, staff checks, qualifications, first-aid cover, supervision ratios and how medical or additional needs are handled. You should also read the cancellation, collection and bad-weather policies before paying.

Popular Easter, summer and half-term dates can fill several weeks ahead. Book early when you need specific days or extended hours, but check the cancellation terms in case your plans change.
