Dates For Your Diary
A reminder for all parents/carers the nursery will be closed for the bank holiday on Monday 25th August.
Nappy Changing
Could we please remind all parents/ Carers to provide enough nappies, wipes and cream for nappy changing. We do a minimum of 4 nappy changes a day but use more nappies should your child need changing in between those scheduled times. Thank you
Crocs
Could we please ask all parents/carers to provide alternative footwear to Crocs in Baby 1, 2 and 3 please, we are finding the babies are having more tripping accidents, while the children are wearing them. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

Our photographer will be on site on Monday 6th October and Tuesday 7th October from 10.00am for your child’s portrait sitting. Please advise us in advance if you require a family/sibling sitting. Parents are welcome to bring along their child/ren if they do not attend those sessions. These child/ren must be always accompanied by you at all times. Parents are welcome to bring in the children’s clothing in which they prefer their child/ren photographs to be taken; staff will be able to dress them on your behalf.
