We have four playrooms in which babies and children are offered a wide range of activities to support their learning and development. Each room has a room supervisor along with practitioners who work within the room, ensuring continuity for all children. New children and their families are invited for settling in visits upon enrolment, during these a practitioner will be assigned as the child’s key person. The role of the key person is to support the child as they settle into their new environment and help them feel safe and secure within it. The role of the key person is to build a relationship with the child and their parents/carers. We value parents/carers as their child’s most important educator so we work closely with parents to ensure their child’s needs are being met.
Please ask us if you have any questions on your child’s care or if you have any concerns no matter how small. We have a wealth of experience and knowledge which we are happy to share with you, to assist in the well being and development of the children we care for and the re-assurance of the parents/carers.
