Parent Partnership
We believe working in partnership with parents is essential in supporting children's development and building positive relationships.
Sharing home learning ideas creates opportunities for children to learn and develop at home, as well as at nursery.
We use our online app to communicate and share your child's progress throughout their day. We also share helpful links, local community information and nursery events.

Settling in Sessions
Once a place has been confirmed, we will contact you to arrange a free settling in session prior to your child start date.
These sessions usually run from 9am
- 12noon.
This will be an opportunity for parents and children to meet their key worker, discuss their preferences, individual needs and for children to explore their new surroundings.
Tax Free Childcare
If you're a working parent with children under 12 you can open an online account to pay for registered childcare.
The government will top-up the money you pay into the account. For every £8 you pay in, the government will add an extra £2. You can receive up to £2,000 per child per year - that's up to £500 every three months!
