Birth to 5 years
Our Nursery Rooms in Weston-super-Mare
Four rooms, each designed around the stage your child is at, with the same familiar faces throughout.
Children journey and progress through our rooms with their friends, which gives them stability and familiarity as they grow. Every move is supported with settling in sessions so you and your child feel ready before the first full day.
Birth to 12 months
Our Baby Room
We understand that choosing a nursery for your precious little one is an extremely important decision. From the first time you visit we will work with you to ensure that you feel confident that your baby will be in a safe, warm and secure environment. We provide complimentary stay and play sessions to ensure you are both happy and settled prior to your baby's first day at nursery.
We recognise that you, the parent or carer, are the first and most important educator for your baby and that every baby is different, so with your support we tailor your baby's introduction to the nursery to suit both you and your baby's individual needs. You will be introduced to your baby's key person when you start at nursery and will also be provided with a day diary where all important daily information can be communicated.
To ensure we provide the continuity of care your baby receives at home, we follow each baby's individual routine where possible. We promote and support breastfeeding, and encourage a baby led atmosphere. The baby room offers a safe and nurturing space to play, roll, crawl, explore and enjoy messy activities, giving them opportunities to develop their physical and social skills. Once they reach the end of their first year they will be ready for their next adventures in our Tiny Tots room.
1 to 2 years
Our Tiny Tots Room
Following on from our baby room is our Tiny Tots room for ages 1 to 2 years of age. Our tiny tots have 3 rooms each divided into specific areas so that all their developmental needs can be planned and progressed alongside the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework. There is a separate sleep room with cots in a homely soft light atmosphere where they can sleep undisturbed with any favourite comforts. There is a room for crafts, activities, messy play and mealtimes. Mealtimes are always supported by their stage at home and fully supervised. Linked with free flow from the craft room is a further room offering a cosy sensory room, providing our early learners with a lovely quiet atmosphere with a soft area for storytime, soft play and activity toys, all enhancing their social and sensory development.
Venturing outdoors is essential in a child's development and a very important element of their day at nursery. We go out in the buggies into the community, parks, duck pond and shops to visit many places of interest and nature. Our large garden is also used daily which offers a variety of areas to enjoy and explore. The tiny tots can play, learn and develop safely with many physical activities to enjoy. They can interact with their friends and with the other nursery children, enhancing their confidence, communication and understanding of the environment around them. Our Tiny Tots room will give your little one a beneficial and secure stepping stone for their journey through the nursery and future life.
2 to 3 years
Our Toddler Room
We recognise that finding the right care for your treasured toddler is an extremely important decision. Your child may already be in our Tiny Tots room and be progressing to the Toddler Room, or you may be choosing a nursery for the first time. Either way we will work with you to ensure you feel confident that your toddler will be in a safe, secure and educational environment. We provide complimentary stay and play sessions, or settling in sessions when moving rooms, to ensure you are both happy and settled prior to your toddler's first day.
Our toddler room has been designed specifically to meet all areas of the EYFS Framework whilst retaining a safe and secure home from home environment. We have 3 rooms for our toddlers to use during their day at nursery, with each room offering stimulating and learning opportunities. The large main room provides lots of interactive and exciting equipment with role play, puzzles, mathematics, music, small world and construction for children to choose independently and make their own choices about the activities they wish to take part in. It also offers a cosy soft area where the toddlers can read, relax or nap if they wish. A craft room gives the children a chance to express their individual creativity with lots of fun, messy and malleable art work, with free access to sand, soil and water play and planned activities such as drawing, painting, playdoh and baking.
We are passionate about exercise and the world around us from the earliest age, so all our children are given daily opportunities to catch some fresh air and be active learners in our secure garden, leading directly out from the toddler room. Our garden offers lots of space for the toddlers to walk, run, roll and play with their friends whilst enjoying and exploring many of the physical and creative garden apparatus. We also take the children out of the nursery on trips, travelling on various modes of transport to learn about the natural environment and places of interest around them.
During their time in the toddler room, we will regularly communicate their learning and development with you in person and through the online Tapestry diary and their day diaries. By working closely together we are sure your treasured toddler will be prepared for their onward journey to preschool and future life.
3 to 5 years
Our Preschool Room
We recognise that finding the right setting for your blossoming preschooler's preparation for transition to school is an extremely important decision. Whether your child has already been in our baby and toddler rooms and is progressing to preschool, or you may be choosing a preschool for the first time, we will work with you to ensure you feel confident that your child will be in a safe, secure and educational environment. We provide complimentary stay and play sessions, or settling in sessions when moving rooms, to ensure you are both happy and settled prior to your child's first day.
Our preschool room has been designed specifically to meet all areas of the EYFS Framework whilst retaining a safe and secure home from home environment. We have 3 rooms for our preschool children to use during their day at nursery. All rooms flow freely to one another, and also flow to the large outdoor garden, allowing the children's choice of fun, stimulating and learning opportunities. The main room is a large room where the children start their day with register and circle time with a wake and shake sing and dance movement. The room has a quiet reading corner and many stimulating and educational open ended resources available for the children to choose independently, offering construction, musical, mathematical, literacy and natural resources which help the children build upon their social skills as they engage in problem solving, exploration, sharing and taking turns, making progress towards their early learning goals.
There is a large room for table activities where the children can enjoy planned and independent interests. Malleable play, creative artwork, home baking, painting, mark making, messy play, sand and water play are all practised to encourage and extend their possibilities and opportunities.
Mealtimes are always an enjoyable interactive time, with the children being encouraged to build upon many new personal and social skills such as sharing, trying lots of new tastes, washing up, using their fine motor skills and communication. At snack times we give the children the opportunity to promote life skills where they can prepare and make their own snack and wash up. We encourage health and self care by ensuring children partake in regular handwashing. They have open access to the toilet, and we will regularly communicate with you to ensure each stage of your child's toilet training is fully supported.
Our garden offers lots of space for the children to walk, run, ride, climb and play with their friends. The garden has an indoor sandpit so this can be enjoyed in all weathers, there are shaded areas, natural resources to enhance imagination and creativity and lots of exciting equipment to promote physical development. In addition to the garden play, we regularly take the children out of the nursery on trips. During their time in the preschool room we will regularly communicate their learning and development with you in person and through the online Tapestry diary, so that your child will be prepared for their onward transition to school and future life.
