We promote the social, cognitive, physical and emotional development of every child. The program supports each child’s learning through planned experiences and activities that are challenging but achievable. We believe that each and every child is special and our practitioners ensure that every child’s needs are being met through high quality play that is tailored to them, so that they develop at their own pace, having fun and learning as they play.

Your baby can safely play, eat, and sleep in a secure yet stimulating environment. We understand babies’ needs and will work closely with you to ensure we are providing everything your child requires throughout their day in the nursery. You will see daily charts of eating schedules, toileting, sleep durations, activities and any other information that you as the parent would wish to know. Our nurse ensures health and safety standards are being met. CHILD DEVELOPMENT Babies and young children are individuals, each with a unique profile of abilities. They develop in individual ways and at varying rates. Each area of development – physical, cognitive, social and emotional- is equally important. Each stage of your child’s development is monitored through ongoing observation and assessment, enabling practitioners to carefully plan and to take into consideration each child’s interests and progress.
