## About this day nursery

James Farm Day Nursery, established in September 2009, traces its roots back to "The Little Cottage Day Nursery," which operated successfully for 12 years in Hartley Wintney. Nestled in a serene, picturesque rural environment, the nursery warmly welcomes children aged 3 months to 4 years and 11 months.

The facility prides itself on offering a spacious, secure, and stimulating atmosphere designed to create a rewarding experience for every child. They are committed to providing exceptional care, evidenced by their use of high-quality equipment, a team of fully qualified staff, and impressive child-to-adult ratios.

The nursery strives to cultivate a close-knit, family-like atmosphere, where children and staff come together for a shared midday meal. Recognising the significant decision parents face when choosing a nursery, James Farm Day Nursery encourages potential families to visit or contact them for additional information.

The nursery also places a strong emphasis on fostering healthy eating habits from an early age, offering carefully prepared, nutritionally balanced meals that adhere to strict government guidelines for sugar and salt content. These meals are designed by experienced chefs to appeal to young palates, utilising seasonal and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.

What it's like

Children are happy and settled in the warm, welcoming and calm nursery. Staff know children very well, which helps foster strong attachments. Children are highly motivated to learn and persist with activities they enjoy.

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff use some signing to support children to understand what is happening next to help them feel safe and secure.

Outdoor space

Children have tremendous fun in the well-equipped outdoor area that gives them plenty of opportunities to develop their physical skills. They enjoy and engage for long periods as they explore sand, mud and water activities. Children also have fun in the garden daily, where they practise coordination and balancing as they crawl under slides and climb up steps.

My 3rd child is now attending James Farm. The staff here are amazing, the care so personal and fantastic. It’s like my babies are at a home from home. I would very highly recommend James Farm. In my opinion it’s a unique and very special place.
