Our Rooms

The White Room

We are extremely proud of our baby and toddler room. Our White Room caters for nine babies from birth to 2 years.

After the white room children are progressed to the Red Room from the age of 2 onwards. In keeping with the whole nursery the White Room, is large, bright, airy and spacious and as you can tell from the name is decorated in whites, creams etc.

Your babies will be cared for by fully qualified and experienced nursery nurses with a staff ratio of one member of staff to every two babies. The White Room provides a happy and loving environment where our staff encourage your baby to develop their first skills such as smiling, touching, sitting, crawling, talking etc.

Baby Milk
All babies up to approximately 9 months should be provided with their own formula milks, after this we will encourage your baby to eat suitably prepared meals.

Sleeping
We have a cot for each baby we look after and each child will have their own separate supply of bed linen, which is cleaned daily by staff.

Nappies
We ask that you supply nappies, wipes, creams etc for your baby.
 
Clothing
We ask that you supply a spare set of clothing for your baby, however there will always be spare sets of clothes at the nursery.

Comfort Toys
If you child has a comfort toy/blanket they are very welcome to bring this to the nursery with them.

We understand that is can be very hard for a parent to leave their baby at a nursery for the first time, therefore we encourage parents to come to the nursery before the babies start date to meet and talk to the staff and have a look around, this enables you to feel more relaxed and will also ensure your child’s transition into nursery goes smoothly and happily.

The Red Room

The Red Room is for our children aged from 2 year to 3 years and has a staff ratio of one member of staff to every 4 children. The Red Room can cater for 30 children.

Just like the rest of the nursery this room is staffed by highly qualified and experienced staff. The Red Room is equipped with the appropriate equipment and toys for their age and stage of development. As with all our room all the activities are carefully planned to ensure a wide variety of experienced and inclusion for all.

Many children at this age still need a daily sleep; therefore we have individual cots and beds for sleep times.

During this important time your child will develop in many ways i.e. talking, potty training, expressing needs, taking turns etc. We are very aware of the child as an individual and aim to provide the necessary support, encouragement and praise that are needed. At this stage our children are encouraged to learn to share and feel part of a group. Breakfast, lunch and tea are very sociable times, which help the children to develop their social skills in a relaxed and friendly environment.

We keep daily records, detailing your child’s routines for the day which is given to parents at home time. We always appreciate any comments you wish to make to help us to provide continuity in the daily care of your child.

The Green Room

The Green Room welcomes children aged from 3 years up to school age. Children in this room benefit from a large, bright room which is well equipped with a wide range of play equipment and learning resources to cater for their needs.

The green Room can accommodate 30 children at a staff ratio of one member of staff to every 8 children.

The equipment and toys are set out in an inviting way and offer opportunities for the children to play with ht following:

·         Puzzles & games

·         Mathematical equipment

·         Drawing

·         Construction & imaginative play

There is also a quiet area where children are encouraged to look at and enjoy our vast selection of reading books. During the day the children have opportunities to use the art, craft and messy area, the computers, the garden (weather permitting) and to explore the wide range of activities that are carefully chosen for them daily. A time is set aside daily for the children to work in small groups. This time is for a more structured approach to learning in readiness for school.

Parents are encouraged to read our notice board, which lists the days activities and to speak to any of the staff regarding their child’s day at nursery.
