## About this day nursery

The Sunshine Day Nursery, established in October 2001, is a family-operated childcare provider with multiple locations. The main nursery is situated on O’Neill Drive, Peterlee, and has since expanded to include Sunshine Day Nursery at Seascape and Sunshine Day Nursery at Dene House.

The nursery focuses on delivering high-quality care and education for children within a friendly, secure, and stimulating environment.

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, are deeply engaged in their play. Leaders use additional funding to provide an individualised approach to children's learning, including arranging exciting physical education sessions.

Outdoor space

Children show high levels of enthusiasm for outdoor learning. Babies and young children straddle logs in the garden and use pretend steering wheels, while older children draw around their feet with chalks, comparing sizes and taking giant steps to promote physical skills.

My son has attended this nursery for nearly a year and he absolutely loves it. The staff are amazing, they genuinely care about the children and work hard to ensure they are all happy and love coming to nursery. I can't recommend this nursery highly enough. From a very picky parent.

My son has been going to this nursery since april 2017 and he loves it. The girls do a brilliant job with him. he was born 8 weeks early, so his development was behind then the other children In his class. He has come on along great now with the girls who have helped him.
