Mobile and Other Recording Devices

To ensure the safety and welfare of children in our care we operate a personal mobile phone usage policy which stipulates that personal mobile phones cannot be used by parents/carers, visitors or staff when in presence of children, on the premises. As a reminder “Phone Prohibited” signs and “Notices “are displayed at the entrance of both nursery and bungalow premises. A sign is also displayed on each children’s room door, outside the corridors.
Recently we have observed parents/carers failing to follow these procedures. Our main priority is the safety of your children; therefore, we would be grateful if everyone can adhere to our policy. We thank you for your co-operation in this matter.

Health & Safety

Please can you provide your child with nappies, wipes, creams, Calpol or Nurofen when required. We do not have any spares and we are finding this difficult to change your child accordingly without any of their own products. This is for your child’s personal needs to be met. Thank you for your co-operation.
