Happy Halloween

Our baby rooms cater for children from the age of three months until they are confidently mobile. Each nursery has a separate sleeping room and changing facilities.

We work on a maximum of 3:1 children to staff ratio with the continuity of staff being a priority.

Our baby rooms are bright, cheerful and stimulating, offering a caring and engaging environment for all of our children. Children are encouraged to explore the world of colour, shape and texture through the use of natural light, toys, adult interaction and lots of sensory experiences.

Here at Purple Bees, we work closely with you to ensure your baby’s home routine is followed. This provides continuity and stability for you and your child. The emphasis in this room is very much on providing home-from-home care with lots of play, love and attention!

As children begin to explore, they will gain confidence and then be able to participate in a wide range of educational and fun developmentally appropriate activities, all of which will be planned in advance and will include colouring, painting, messy play, singing etc., to create a fun-filled day for your child.

To ensure a smooth, stress-free transition from home to nursery life, convenient settling-in sessions are always arranged. During these sessions, which you will attend, your baby’s needs and any special requirements can be discussed with nursery staff to establish a beneficial plan of action.

At two years of age, your child will enter our toddler rooms! These rooms cater to children aged two to three years of age with a maximum of 4:1 children to staff ratio. Within these rooms, they start to prepare for preschool, so self-selection of activities and independence is encouraged throughout the day.

These rooms are full of energy and support a wider range of educational yet fun activities that have all been carefully selected to stimulate your child’s growing curiosity of the world around them. With the EYFS planning and observation system in place, the nursery staff will be actively encouraging your child’s interests, offering them further opportunities to explore.

When it comes to potty training, we will encourage your child to be as independent as possible. All we ask is that you bring in lots of spare clothes in case they have a little accident, so they will have their own clothes ready to be changed straight into.
