Settling in  

We aim to ensure children feel safe and secure in the absence of their parents/carers. We will therefore endeavour to make the settling-in process a positive experience for children and will work closely in partnership with parents/carers to ensure this is achieved.  

We recognise that in some cases there may be particular difficulties experienced by children, parents/carers, and staff during the settling-in period and we are prepared to explore and consider various ways of settling children into the service.   All children are individuals and we plan to meet their individual needs and resolve any difficulties quickly and smoothly. If you are experiencing challenges in relation to settling your child we will work with you to assist in making this transition.  

Healthy eating  

The service promotes healthy nutritional choices. We always sit with the children and supervise them when eating and drinking snacks or meals. Snack time will be enjoyed, and socialisation and interaction encouraged. Children are encouraged to feed themselves as appropriate to their age and stage of development.
