From the Dream Big Little One
The kids are at the centre of everything we do at Dream Big Little One Nursery.
We take great delight in the fact that our kids are content and receive the ideal mix of nurturing, care, and education.
We at Dream Big Little One are committed to offering a setting that is both physically and emotionally secure.
Everyone on the staff is dedicated to ensuring your child's welfare and security.
At Dream Big Little One, every day is meticulously organised to offer your kid the best learning possibilities in a welcoming, caring atmosphere.
We encourage children's natural curiosity by offering a variety of activities at the nursery and lots of opportunities for good interaction with trained, considerate, and qualified personnel.
The most crucial years in a child's existence are the first five.
The Early Years Foundation Stage's themes guide our work in the nursery.
At this young age, parent-child relationships are more crucial than ever, and we strongly encourage parental involvement, advice, and feedback.
We intend to make this communication as simple as possible for parents by using the key person strategy.
We believe the relationship between key people and families can give you the chance to share your child's successes, struggles, and milestones with someone you know is fully committed to working with you and your family. This method of working in nurseries is described as one in which the entire focus and organisation is aimed at enabling and supporting close attachments between individual children and individual nursery staff[1].
