We work closely with parents to ensure feeding, sleeping and changing routines are agreed and individual needs are met.
At eighteen months, children make the transition to our toddler unit- Busy Bees. We offer settling in sessions in advance and are flexible as to age, depending on stage of development. Busy Bees provides a range of accessible play equipment, natural resources, sensory experiences and physical opportunities to develop children's all round development.
Learning Ladybirds covers children from two and a half years to school transition age. We have two large rooms equipped for a range of play opportunities, covering all areas of the EYFS curriculum. We aim to help children construct, create, engage in imaginative play and above all, have fun through learning.
Sunbeams place high importance on experience in childcare and employ staff who have many years caring for children. We offer continuing training through NVQ, student placements and relevant courses such as First Aid, Child Protection and Food Hygiene. As required by Ofsted all of our staff receive police checks and our staff ratios are well within the recommended Ofsted guidelines.
