About Us

The Margaret Barnard Trust has been at the heart of Tywyn since 1956, providing bilingual, affordable childcare for local families. We’re proud of our long history and even prouder of the welcoming, family‑like community we’ve built. We look forward to welcoming your family into ours.

Your child will thrive in the care of our passionate, dedicated team, who fill each day with fun, curiosity and inspiring learning experiences. And you’ll feel confident knowing they’re getting the very best start in life.

Full day sessions include a morning snack, a hot lunch with pudding, and an afternoon snack. Our wonderful outdoor area gives children the chance to explore, play and enjoy fresh air every day. We’re also part of the Welsh Government’s Flying Start scheme for 2‑year‑olds and the Childcare Offer for Wales for 3‑year‑olds. Our staff and volunteers are committed to providing high‑quality childcare that supports every child to shine.
