Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders carefully design learning experiences that build on children's knowledge, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Staff work closely with other professionals and schools that children are transitioning on to.

Outdoor space

All children enjoy fresh air and exercise in the outdoor areas. They have access to an ample range of resources; however, these areas are not as stimulating as indoors for children to extend their learning through play, such as to develop their coordination, movement and control of their bodies.

My son, who is now 10 months old, loves going to Kindercare. He always has a big smile when he arrives, and comes home with paintings, crafts and short reports of his daily activities. When he was a new starter the excellent team in the Babies' Room did everything they could to ensure that he settled in as smoothly and as easily as possible. Corinna, Clare, Mel and the team are all absolutely wonderful, and I recommend Kindercare to anyone who is seeking nursery provision for their child.

This nursery is amazing. The staff are not just your childs carers but brilliant people to talk to and create a good bond with. So understanding and helpful in every way possible. They are fab with my sons dietary requirements and never fail to help him strive to be the best he can.
