Inclusion & environment
Children who speak English as an additional language are supported very well. Staff speak other languages in addition to English and use these skills to help support children and families. Staff use pictures as prompts and speak clearly to children. This helps children to understand and develop their English skills.
My daughter has just recently started here, as a very anxious mom about starting nursery I can honestly say the transition has been very smooth for us both! Lily has bonded extremely well with her key worker and they have been having lots of fun, the smile on her face at pick up has shown me this! I would definitely recommend this nursery to others who are looking to start their childcare journey 🩷
