Buddies gives families in Chester reliable before and after school care, built around what children actually enjoy.




Our clubs give children a safe, welcoming space with staff who know them, and activities they actually want to do. Each session is flexible and child-led, with a good balance of creativity, movement, and down time.
We operate at two Chester schools, with strong links to teaching teams and a focus on making drop-off and pick-up easy for families.
Buddies has been supporting Chester families since 2012. We’re fully Ofsted-registered, staffed by qualified professionals, and deeply rooted in the schools we work with.
Children stay with us for years, often from their very first term in school until their last days of year 6. Parents tell us they feel confident knowing their child is safe, seen, and genuinely cared for.
