Why Springwood Nursery?
We understand how difficult it is choosing a nursery for your child to attend. You want them to feel secured and at home, but you also need to know that they are in a healthy and safe environment. We continually ask parents for their suggestions to help make our nursery the best we possibly can.
We:
• Are open from 7.30am to 6pm Monday to Friday, 51 weeks of the year
• Offer sessions such as half-days (mornings or afternoons) or full day
• Have dedicated rooms for ages from 3 months up to 11 years, where children move on only when they are ready for the next stage, and are introduced gradually
• Offer free settling-in sessions to get your child to meet their new friends slowly and feel comfortable before your actual sessions commence.
• Have our own cook making freshly cooked meals daily - and a healthy eating policy including offering the recommended 5 portions of fruit and vegetables every day.
• Hold high standards of Health and Hygiene including alcohol gel at doorways, own bedding for little ones to sleep and washed daily, aprons and gloves for staff, sterilised 'dummy' containers and a separate milk fridge and preparation area for babies.
• Follow the Early Years Foundation Stage frameworks, as well as a 'Key Person' system where your child is observed and developed by one member of the team who will plan suitable activities according to children's developmental needs.
• Have secure and safe premises - including lockable windows, electronic fob-controlled doors, full CCTV throughout the nursery, high door handles and safety glass.
• Have an emphasis on parental involvement. Daily record books for children to take home, regular parents evenings and newsletters and an 'Open Door' policy where parents are free to visit or telephone as often as they feel necessary to put their minds at ease.
This is only some of the reasons you should enrol your child at springwood nursery, for even more, come along and visit us!
