We offer a dedicated settling-in programme that allows you to stay with your child during their initial sessions. This helps them gradually become familiar with their new surroundings, while you get the opportunity to meet their key person, observe how they interact with the team, and see them begin to form early friendships.
We encourage a series of short sessions, gradually increasing in length, to help build your child’s confidence and independence at a pace that suits them. There’s no rush—the settling-in period is completely free of charge, and we’ll take the time you and your child need.
In the lead-up to your child’s first day, you’re also welcome to join our stay-and-play or baby and toddler group sessions, where you can both get a feel for nursery life in a relaxed and friendly setting.
Our focus is always on building strong, trusting relationships. Your child’s key person will work closely with you to understand their routine, likes and dislikes, comfort needs, and anything else that helps them feel safe and secure. We tailor our care and activities to reflect your child’s interests, helping them feel valued and understood from the very beginning.
If you have any questions or concerns about starting nursery—or transitions between rooms and eventually on to school—we’re here to offer advice, support, and a listening ear every step of the way.
