Nursery Manager

The Staff Team
Rebecca places great importance on choosing well-qualified, motivated staff who will form positive relationships with the children in their care. She has built a strong team who will make your child's early years at nursery a special experience and give them the best possible start in preparation for the big step forward to their school life. Caring for children is an important and challenging career. The right person and good training can make a huge difference to your child's enjoyment for their time at nursery.
Settling-in Period
New children and parents have three settling in sessions at the nursery. The first is an introductory session, lasting half an hour, during which time parents meet staff and then introduce their child to the nursery staff.
Nursery Facilities
The facilities at the nursery are separated into four age groups:
Outside Space
Outdoor play is an important part of learning and having fun and the large gardens at The Trees provide ample space and equipment for all ages.
Food & Mealtimes
A good diet is essential for the health and happiness of children and the nursery has designed a selection of well-planned menus, which are nutritious and tasty, using a combination of fresh fruit, vegetables and protein. It caters for most dietary needs, menus are varied and all meals are cooked freshly on site.
Security
The nursery door is securely locked at all times and only a member of the nursery staff is authorised to open it. Parents are requested not to answer the door if they hear the doorbell ring. Staff will check ID’s and passwords for anyone collecting a child, other than the primary carer and will not allow anyone they do not know, or who does not have prior consent, entry into the building.
Opening Hours
Normal opening hours are 8.00 am to 6.00 pm Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays.
