- What to Bring to Nursery
-
Please could parents supply nappies, cream and wipes if
required.
Baby Bees only- formula milk made up in their own
bottles.
Children MUST bring a pair of indoor trainers, plimsoles or
slippers and children will need suncream and a hat in summer. We do sell
baseball and legionnaire caps in the office.
All children do wear aprons for activities and the younger
children have bibs for meals, but there may still be a chance of
spillages. If you prefer, tee shirts and sweatshirts, which would save
their everyday clothes, are available at the office.
- Settling Your Child into
Nursery -
If your child is not used to being away from you,
s/he can be expected to need time to settle into nursery. All children
react differently on being left in a new environment. Sometimes the
child may appear to settle easily but after a few weeks may become
tearful and reluctant for their parents to leave. Others show distress
at first but will steadily gain confidence. Of course some children will
adjust to nursery with very few problems.
Do be positive about your child's time at
nursery and about the good things they do there.
Do
talk to staff, they are there to work with you for the good of your
child.
Do feel free to phone at any time. You will
probably find that your child has settled within minutes of your
leaving.
Please remember your child will settle and will benefit
from interacting with other children and adults. This is good
preparation for school and will help your child feel secure and to
become confident.
- Illness -
Children who are
ill and/or infectious must not be brought to nursery.We ask that you
phone and let us know if your child is going to be absent.
-
Security -
The nursery has a high level
of security including security doors and CCTV. If someone else is
collecting your child, it is essential that you inform the
office and you will need to give a password. We will not let the child
go home with anybody if we have not been informed.
