About Us

High Quality Childcare and Education

Our Ethos and Values

A child’s early years are the most important years of their lives. Therefore, we strive to provide high quality childcare and education for all children that is appropriate to their individual needs and interests. This is provided for in a positive, respectful environment, by supportive adults sensitive to the individual needs of the child and their family.

Working in partnership with parents/carers is vital for effective learning and development for the child. This is achieved by building relationships with the child and family through the Key Person Approach. The Key person will support each child’s learning and development by helping to Progress the child’s learning but not push them beyond their capabilities.

We engage the children by adapting the environment to their current interests and this can change a lot! We love natural resources, and always use open-ended questions to help encourage the children’s passion of learning to grow! The children can use them in any which way they want to, they become more curious, more intrigued and they become critical thinkers. We let children find out things by themselves, but as the adults we support and extend on what they discover.

Private Spacious Garden

We have two unique safe and secure spacious gardens with free flow access to two of the rooms, meaning the children can access all areas of provision from inside and outside.
We have a variety of resources tailored to meet the needs of all children for each age and stage encompassing the seven areas of learning in the EYFS 2021 Our outside area also attracts lots of wildlife providing many learning opportunities for the children.

Key Person Approach

Children thrive from a base of loving and secure relationships. A key person is a named member of staff at Little Acres Day Nursery with responsibilities for a small group of children who helps those children in the group feel safe and secure, supported, and cared for. The role is essential to the well-being and development of young children in early years settings. Your child’s key person responds sensitively to your child’s feelings and behaviours and meets emotional needs by giving reassurance, comfort and support.
Your child’s key person will support physical needs such as nappy changing and toileting, feeding and sleep routines, and is the familiar person who is a point of contact for parents and carers to build a relationship and feedback about each child’s day, the key person will be working together with parents/careers to promote all children’s individual learning and development, they will help settle the children into nursery providing a safe and secure relationship and provide weekly photos of your child’s development.
