| We, at Wimbledon Day Nursery, appreciate and respect the amount of trust it must take, and perhaps the reservations you may have, in leaving your baby at a nursery. We can assure you that your child will be in a loving and stimulating environment with staff who are there because of their love of children and excellent abilities to take care of them. We want to be a nursery that offers you an outstanding service so you can go about your day with peace of mind knowing your child is in the best possible hands. |
| The baby room will cater for children from the age of 3 months through to 18 months. This room will be as interactive and stimulating as possible giving your child the opportunity to explore and experience and constantly learn in a caring and nurturing environment. |
| A typical day will consist of freeplay to develop sense of self and social awareness, sensory play to explore and experiment with the world around them, soft equipment play to develop their physical selves and gross motor skills, songs, stories and craft activities for their creative and social selves and lots of cuddles and encouragement to keep them going throughout the day. |
| Staff will follow the Early Years Foundation Stage and plan activities according to your child’s individual learning goals to ensure your child gets the best opportunities for development during their time with us. |
| Of course we understand the importance of routine and structure in a child’s life and will follow a daily time table to keep a consistency for your child in nursery. There will be breakfast, lunch and dinner provided as well as two daily healthy snacks. Your child will be able to sleep throughout the day whenever it is necessary in our sleep area where they will be checked every ten minutes to ensure their wellbeing. If you have any special requirements or daily rountines that you would like us to uphold also please speak to a member of staffas we try to work to your routine at home to keep consistency of care for your child – we are here to help and make sure we give your child the best care possible. |
| Our main aim is to ensure that your child is always happy and all their needs are met – the child always comes first. |
