About this day nursery

Rainbow Corner Day Nursery, located in Grimsby, adheres to the comprehensive Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, ensuring a high standard of learning and development for children aged 0-5. The nursery believes in a family-oriented ethos, fostering a supportive environment where staff, children, families, and the wider community work together.

Their curriculum is designed to inspire independence, confidence, and curiosity, aiming for children to be happy, secure, and ready for their next stages of learning. They prioritise strong relationships, enabling environments, and individualised learning experiences, recognising the unique developmental journey of each child.

The nursery caters specifically to under-twos with dedicated settling-in sessions, loving care, and a balanced routine of quiet times and structured play. Their under-twos area includes a bright play space, a restful sleep room, a milk kitchen, a nappy change area, and an all-weather outdoor play space.

Children aged 18 months to 2 years also engage in additional structured activities like painting, gluing, and cold cookery. For children aged 2-5, the pre-school room offers a diverse range of activities across a large bright room, a quiet room, a 'garden room' for messy and creative play, and an outdoor area.

These activities focus on developing sensory, pre-writing, concentration, pre-reading, motor, and mathematical skills, alongside independence, problem-solving, and communication. The nursery champions purposeful play as a key learning method and conducts 2-year checks using EYFS guidance.

They work in close partnership with parents, valuing each child's individuality and journey of development.
