All about us

Staff
Proprietor: Emma Reynolds
Managers Emma Reynolds & Lucia Hameed


We are pleased to have an excellent staff ratio.
We currently have 1:4 with children 2-5 years and 1:3 for 0-2 years.
We achieve a quality service by recruiting highly motivated, qualified and experienced staff.
All our staff are fully qualified NVQ / N.N.E.B or equivalent some also have additional childcare qualifications. They all hold current First Aid Certificates, Child Protection and Basic Food Hygiene Certificates. Our nursery is committed to the ongoing professional training for all staff to ensure the highest standards of care for your child.


Staff Ratio
Under 2’s 1carer to 3 children
Over 2’s 1 carer to 4 children

Key Workers
Each member of staff has responsibility for just a few children ensuring that your child has an adult to relate to. Your child’s key worker will plan his / her activities and curriculum which will be tailored to their individual needs. The key worker will work alongside parents, thus ensuring your child is supported in reaching his / her full potential. Each key worker carries out observations on your child, keeping an individual record of your child’s progress, which they will be happy to discuss with you at any time

Partnership With Parents
We believe that you and your child are entitled to expect courtesy and prompt attention to your needs and wishes. Our door is always open and you will always be given a warm welcome and can expect confidentiality on any discussion that takes place about their child. The only exception to this is where there is concern for the child’s welfare (see child protection).

Your input is very important to us and any new ideas, which could improve our nursery are welcomed. We recognise that your life skills, background and culture are a valuable resource to our nursery and you are always welcome to attend part or all of a nursery session and maybe share some of your experiences or skills.

To enable us to ensure the best care for your child please speak to your child’s key worker or the manager about any changes in your child’s home circumstances or any sickness. This information will be kept in confidence.
