## About this day nursery

Kea Preschool is dedicated to offering an inclusive environment for all children and families within the local community. The preschool prides itself on openly advertising its services and providing easily understandable information to ensure broad accessibility.

Admissions are handled on a waiting list system, prioritising children eligible for funded entitlements, including two-year-olds. The setting is committed to accommodating individual needs and operates according to the Code of Practice for Cornwall for funded places.

Families are actively involved, with the preschool welcoming all parents, guardians, and carers. The setting champions diversity and equality, fostering an atmosphere of respect for all backgrounds, genders, family structures, and abilities.

They also monitor the demographics of children joining to prevent any accidental discrimination and support children and parents with disabilities to fully participate. The preschool consults with families on opening hours and offers flexible attendance patterns, as long as continuity and stability for all children are maintained.

They are a registered charity, ensuring that all funds are reinvested into enhancing the facilities, toys, resources, and experiences for the children, while striving to keep fees as low as possible without compromising on the quality of childcare and education.

What it's like

Children enter the pre-school enthusiastically and happily. Staff know children and families really well and welcome them warmly. They clearly have friendly and caring relationships with children, which supports children's emotional well-being and sense of security. Staff are calm and treat children with consideration and kindness. They gently guide children to share, take turns and cooperate as they play.
