Quality Childcare

Quality Childcare

 
At Grena Road Day Nursery and Preschool, we pride ourselves on delivering a high level of early years childcare and education to all our children. Our nursery environment focuses on encouraging children’s independence and choice, to support their learning.  We encourage exploration, investigation and fun through freedom of choice, child centred activities and adult support and interaction.

The nursery environment also ensures that nursery activities and resources aid children in achieving the six Early Learning Goals (see information on the Early Years Foundation Stage)

The nursery is split into nine rooms, two of which cater for young babies, three for children aged approximately from 1-2 years, two for children aged approximately from 2-3 years and two rooms for our pre-school children who are usually aged 3–5 years.  We ensure that children are looked after in small group sizes to enable the staff to form strong and positive relationships with our children and parents.

Planning for our children’s nursery education always starts with the child.  The nursery team observe their key children daily and make notes on their observations in order to plan how they can further extend and support the child’s learning and development in specific areas.  

The Key person at the day nursery and preschool use children’s observations to plan for the following week's activities, recording both adult led and child led activities and ideas.  Parents are encouraged to contribute to their children’s learning through various different strategies adopted by the nursery.  

Children’s own work and creations are valued through discussions, displays and recognition.  Staff inform parents each day of what their children have been doing to enable parents to discuss and share experiences with their children.

We offer many extra curricular activities for children including Yoga Bugs, Music sessions and IT lessons.
