We would love for you to come in for your kid's settling in sessions after submitting an enrollment form confirming the start date for your child.
These sessions are a special time where we can get to know you and your child and their individual routines and preferences, which will facilitate a smooth transition to nursery.
It is an opportunity for your child and their Key Person to create a strong relationship which will support them as they separate from their parents/carers which for many, will be for the first time.
We recommend you contact us around a month before your childs start date, to arrange your settling in sessions for the 2 weeks prior to their start.
The remaining settling in sessions can be tailored to suit you and your child.
You know your child best and so we are happy to follow your lead; if you wish to stay for a short while, leave for an hour or so, or let them stay and play for a longer period, we will support you in your decision.
Visit 3: 9.30am 12.30pm ~ 3 hours Child visit with Key Person to include Snack and Lunch (unless pre-weaning). If you feel your child will need more frequent, shorter visits, or if you would like to arrange additional invoiced visits, please do not hesitate to ask and we will happily accommodate.
Each child will be given their own peg which will be prepared in readiness for their belongings on the first day.
*Box of Cereal - if your child will be enjoying their breakfast with their friends at nursery.* Come rain, or shine, water play is fun whatever the weather!.
* Wet weather clothes for outside play and trips to the woods.
We love to get messy and quite often very wet in our water play!
