Sessions are for members of either toy library, and run from 9.30am to 11.30am. To find out more or book a place, visit or phone Fiona on Thursdays between 10am and 1pm at Carousel Toy Library in West Exe Children’s Centre, tel 01392 279361.
Our regular toy library sessions will continue as normal in addition to the stay and plays.

We are looking for paid sessional workers to cover leave/sickness/training in our Toy Libraries.
Our charity opens all year round so if you work part time or term time only or are looking for a new experience then this could fit into your work.
We are looking for people who work with children and families, understand child development, the importance of play and the part that toys play in a child’s development. You would also need to have knowledge of simple book keeping and filing etc or have good maths skills. Training given.
For further information please contact us via the contact page or phone 01392 436777 during opening hours
