Settling your child into the nursery environment is very important. The approach to the introduction of your child will be discussed on a one-on-one basis with you, and the optimum introduction method will be adopted depending on their age, experience and temperament.

The seven areas of learning are a focus of our nursery environment. These areas are: • Personal, social and emotional development • Physical development • Communication and language • Literacy • Mathematics • Understanding of the world • Expressive arts and design We work with the Birth to 5 matters framework - more information can be found on https://birthto5matters.org.uk/information-for-parents.(https://birthto5matters.org.uk/information-for-parents)

We offer a variety of outdoor play areas for your child to enjoy. Our large, secure outdoor spaces include grass and safety flooring areas for older children, complete with a canopy for all-weather play. Babies have a secluded lawned area with an all-weather surface, ensuring year-round use. Our sensory garden allows children to explore different sensations, and we have equipment like a playhouse for added fun. Our landscape gardeners keep these areas in top condition.
