Settling in / Admission

We have two weeks gradual admission free of charge for one hour prior to starting with us, parents are asked to stay for 10 - 15 minutes with their child while they familiarise themselves with the surroundings and meet members of staff, parent are then asked to step away to another room for one hour while your child plays and gets used to being without you, this is to ensure that you and your child feel happy, secure and comfortable in the setting.

We are a close knit setting so children are encouraged to free flow. We join the children together for story time, music, rhyme time and during meals and snack time. Our children have the opportunity to play alongside different age groups, which helps to build the children’s communication, and social skills.
