Babies

Our baby room is light and airy with an abundance of bright interactive toys and stimulating displays. Our warm and caring staff are well-qualified and very experienced in looking after our babies.

We frequently take our babies to the local park to stimulate the senses and encourage observation of the outside environment.

We know every baby is different so our staff take time to understand their needs and preferences. Throughout the day staff complete a record sheet for each baby, so you’ll see how much your baby has had to drink, eat, how long they’ve slept and what they’ve been doing.

Toddlers

Our toddlers are happy, busy little people, looked after by patient, caring and creative carers. The children have use of a secure outside wooden deck area directly accessible from their room, allowing them to play freely outside whenever they choose in the warmer months of the year. A structured daily routine helps the children to settle in and feel secure and carefully planned activities stimulate young imaginations and encourage new skills, whilst having fun.

Pre-school

In this area, our staff creatively design amusing activities and games to help our pre-school children learn effectively and effortlessly. The children’s natural curiosity and desire to learn is encouraged to enable them to reach their full potential. This might involve using musical instruments, singing nursery rhymes, weighing ingredients for cooking, counting treasures collected from a park visit or playing at being a shop keeper.

The staff are very aware of the best play environment for a child to develop the essential skills for learning to play with, talk to and respect other children.

We complete a report for each individual child based on a holistic view of all areas of learning and development. You will receive regular verbal and written reports throughout the year. Your child’s final report and Early Learning profile will be sent directly to their primary school.

All our pre-school children are invited to attend a special ‘graduation’ celebration event just before they leave for primary school.
