Working With Parents

We place great emphasis on high standards and continuity of care and feel it essential that our partnership with parents is based on trust, and co-operation. Once our child is registered to start at the nursery a settling session will be arranged.

The settling session allows good communication between staff and parents and will enable us to build a daily routine for our staff to follow each day, daily routines are displayed and kept regularly updated by our parents.
