About Little Cherubs

At Little Cherubs Day Care Nursery we provide a fifty-three place, full day care nursery. We provide places for girls and boys from 6 weeks to five years of age. We are staffed with full/part time workers who are qualified or are working towards an NVQ 3.

We feel that the children's care in nursery should promote security, self-esteem and develop warm and positive relationships. In partnership with the parents and the children we aim to create a nurturing, relaxed and friendly environment in which the children in our care feel safe and secure.

Quality childhood care and education will develop self-esteem, confidence and later learning. We support parents as the child's primary carer and first educator through mutual respect. We share information about the child's care, development and educational activities.

We aim to create a very homely environment for the children in our care, play is not only crucial to the way children become self-aware and the way in which they learn social behaviour, it is also fundamental to intellectual development. Young children learn most effectively when they are actively encouraged in first hand experiences.

Children are listened to, appreciated and recognised in their efforts and achievements. We aim to ensure that the children are protected, respected and valued as small people in our nursery environment.

Housekeeping

At Little Cherubs Day care nursery we have a full-time housekeeper. Our Housekeeper ensures that all areas of the nursery are kept clean and tidy, and also tidies up after the children’s meal times, ensuring that staff ratios are maintained at all times.

We have a full-time chef, who also works alongside the parents to ensure that we have a healthy and seasonal menu in place. At Little Cherubs we recently received a bronze food award, and will now be working towards obtaining a gold award.

At little Cherubs we also have a gardener who attends regularly to ensure our outdoor area is well maintained.
