The nursery aims to provide a comforting and secure environment that feels like an extension of home, encouraging children to play and develop. They focus on innovative and fun teaching methods, ensuring a stimulating space where children engage with staff and develop new skills daily. Learning through play is a core principle, particularly evident in their refurbished outdoor play area designed to help babies, toddlers, and pre-school children flourish. The nursery is committed to high-quality care, employing experienced and qualified practitioners who are passionate about childcare. Continuous internal and external staff training ensures that the services are constantly improving. Giggles Nursery also prioritises strong partnerships with parents, providing daily feedback through written observations and reports, and utilising an online learning journal called Tapestry to log children's activities and learning journeys. They offer open mornings for parents to participate in activities and individual key person meetings to discuss developmental progress. Each child is assigned a key person to provide tailored care, fostering confidence and social interaction in a safe and trusting environment. Our ethos Here at Giggles, we believe that your child’s nursery should feel like an extension of their home. With this in mind, one of our aims is to provide a comforting, secure environment that will make every child feel happy to play and develop in. We aim to introduce children to learning in an innovative, fun way and we continuously look for new teaching methods. Our focus is on learning through play and this can be seen through our heavy focus on our outside play area. What it's like Children's care and emotional needs are given high priority by the leaders and staff, who know the children well and help them to form strong and secure attachments. This helps children to feel safe and secure, settle quickly, and demonstrate confidence in choosing what to play with. Leaders and staff organise the environment to allow children to make their own choices about resources and toys, with a clear vision to support children's health and well-being, such as carefully devised menus to limit processed foods and sugar.
