About Our Family Run Day Nursery in Weston-super-Mare

Our setting

Our nursery is set in a residential area within a local village community giving the children excellent opportunities to explore their surroundings as part of their nursery routine. Our home from home setting has adequate space for 69 children each session from birth to 5 years of age. The nursery offers many rooms: a baby room (0 to 1 year), a tiny tots room (1 to 2 years), a toddler room (2 to 3 years) and our preschool room (3 to 5 years). The additional rooms are used for dining, sleeping, craft, story and sensory times. This provides the children with stability and familiarity of the nursery as they journey and progress through the rooms with their friends.

We are open 49 weeks per year from 7.30am until 6pm Monday to Friday. We offer full day or half day sessions and will always do our best to accommodate various hours allowing government funded parents to fulfil their entitlements. We accept all government funding, childcare vouchers and tax free childcare, and we welcome children and their families from all backgrounds, ethnic minorities, those with special educational needs or disabilities, as well as children who speak English as an additional language or do not speak English at all. We work closely in partnership with local support agencies and North Somerset in order to meet each child's individual needs.

We promote equality and diversity in our setting by promoting British Values to protect our children from discrimination, and involve the children in celebrating all kinds of festivals and traditions throughout the year. We inspire the children to respect other's views, encourage them to share and take turns, thus providing a sense of right and wrong and ensuring a safe and friendly environment.

Food and the outdoors

We offer a fully home cooked menu providing the children with a variety of healthy and nutritional foods. We pride ourselves on our 5 star Food and Hygiene rating which we have consistently been awarded for all Environmental Health inspections. You can see what is cooking on our menu page.

We have a large outdoor garden which offers a natural and stimulating environment with many physical and creative resources. The children go outside every day so they can play, explore and extend upon their physical development and understanding of our world and the nature around us. The outdoors is fundamental to children's learning and development and we support this with our garden and with our trips out of the setting, whatever the weather, on different modes of transport to visit places such as the beach, park, woods, museum, local schools, boat yard, swimming, an elderly residential home and ballet class.

We recognise that every child is individual and deserves the best possible start in life and we actively support and encourage all the areas of learning and development by following you, the parent or carer, together with the EYFS framework and your child's key person.

We understand how choosing a nursery is a huge decision for any parent or carer. We hope our home from home nursery, where your little one will be cared for as if they were our own, where safeguarding is of imperative importance, and where we continually strive to promote excellent learning and a warm environment where your child can freely express their personalities, build in confidence and be happy as they grow, makes Ready Steady Go the perfect nursery for your child.
