Parents are our Partners at Kinderland Day Nursery

We believe that children benefit the most when parents and staff work together in partnership to ensure quality care and learning for the children. The nursery team welcomes parents as partners and this relationship needs to be built on trust and understanding. It is important that we, as carers, are able to support parents in an open and sensitive manner. A two way sharing of information is key.

Terms and Conditions Policies and Procedures

We aim to:

  • Recognise and support parents as their child’s first and most important educators, and to welcome them into the life of the nursery!
  • Generate confidence and encourage parents to trust their own instincts and judgements regarding their own child.
  • Support parents in their own continuing education and personal development and inform them of relevant conferences, workshops and training.
  • Always share learning goals for each child which we refer to as their Next Step! This is shared through wall displays and the eylog app.
  • Offer regular parents meetings so they can catch up with the key person via Mircosoft teams or in person at their convivence.
  • Inform parents about nursery activities and events through the eylog app and social media.
  • Invite parents to informal parents evenings once a term to explore the nursery freely and get to know us better! It's also an opportunity for parents to meet other families within the Nursery.
