After-school club · Southborough

A quiet, home-from-home after-school club.

We collect from Southborough Primary School and offer wraparound care from the school day until 6pm — Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Calm, settled, and kind.

About Emma

Hello, I’m Emma.

I’m a Teaching Assistant at Southborough Primary School and an Ofsted-registered childminder (URN EY563696), running Meadow Kids from our family home on Meadow Road. The children at my club already know me from the school day, which makes the move from classroom to club an easy one.

Meadow Kids is a small, settled afternoon: a snack on the table, a garden to play in, plenty of craft, and the company of two friendly guinea pigs.

A typical afternoon

How wraparound care works at Meadow Kids.

I collect children directly from Southborough Primary School at the end of the school day. From there it’s a short walk back to ours on Meadow Road. We share a snack, then it’s a mix of free play, craft, garden time, and a quiet space for homework if it’s needed — until parents arrive by 6pm.

Arts & crafts
Beadwork, painting, paper-plate dreamcatchers, seasonal art.
Garden play
Free play in our enclosed garden when the weather agrees.
Construction & STEM
Magnetic sticks, snap circuits, Lego — building things together.
Baking & celebrations
Pizza-making, baking afternoons, and the occasional birthday cake.
Quiet corner
Reading, drawing, or a quiet space for homework if it's needed.
Looking after the guinea pigs
Feeding, gentle handling, and learning to care for animals.
