Our day care is a fun, friendly exciting environment for children to learn, play and develop. When your child attends our day care every day will begin with a smile from a friendly face. You and your child will get to know your key worker which enables us all to share valuable information, develop a partnership and work towards ensuring your child reaches their full potential. We believe that parents/carers are a child’s first educator and therefore value a close working relationship with all parents.
Our day care team is committed to providing the very best care. They are well trained and qualified and all necessary safeguarding procedures have been completed. Staff are dedicated, enthusiastic and share a love of children with a desire to see them grow and develop.
All children in day care experience a safe, secure and stimulating environment which offers activities to promote positive images of all cultures, in a non stereotypical way, through play equipments, displays, books and role play.
We encourage healthy eating at main meals and snack times. Physical exercise is fully promoted and encouraged with access to two direct well resourced outdoor areas and access to the main school hall for extra fun and games.
We also operate strict policies relating to child safety and safer recruitment. Copies of all our policies are available for parents if required.
At our last inspection Ofsted reported:
March 2024 ‘Good’
Staff greet children warmly as they enter the nursery. Children are happy to attend and settle quickly into their play. Staff take time to build relationships with children so that they feel safe and secure. This supports children's personal, social and emotional development. Staff gather information from parents about their child's likes and dislikes at the start of their placement. This helps staff to plan effectively to meet their individual needs from the start. Staff share information with parents about the curriculum, the intent for children's learning and ideas for continuing their child's learning at home. This helps to build very positive partnerships with parents from the start.
Staff encourage children's awareness of the expectations of behaviour. They act as positive role models to children, who in turn behave well. Children learn to share and take turns during their play. Staff recognise children's achievements and offer praise and encouragement. This builds children's confidence and self-esteem. Staff continually encourage children's independence. Children understand the importance of washing their hands at appropriate times during the day. They learn to put on their coats ready to go outside to play, and they use the bathroom independently. Younger children sleep safely because staff follow effective routines and practices.
