Our Ethos:

 

‘To provide a friendly, family-oriented, nurturing and supportive environment in which all children and young people are known as individuals and are equally valued and supported regardless of race, religion, home language, family background, gender, disability and/or learning difficulty’.

 

Our dedicated team at the Tots ‘R’ Us Nursery aim to provide a positive and friendly introduction to play and learning for all children and young people accessing their services.  We prepare appropriate areas with different materials and equipment to provide them with a wide range of play and creative activities. Children have free access to explore a wide variety of subjects in a child-centred way. In this way, we encourage them to take a few steps towards independence in a safe and caring environment.

 

Aims:

 

• Provide a safe environment for children to play and learn

 

• Enable children and young people to express their feelings

 

• Provide opportunities for the children and young people to make friends and to trust adults other than family members

 

• Encourage children and young people to share with others

 

• Provide stimulating activities and play experiences which they may not have available at home which will enable them to develop physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially and encourage development of language

 

• Encourage, promote integration of different cultures, and give children and young people positive images of the real world.

 

• Prepare children and young people for their next stage in life

 

• Provide support to parents/carers

 

• Provide links with the community and encourage parents/carers to seek professional advice or support for their child should it be necessary

 

• Allow children and young people to learn at their own pace, offering encouragement to help each child/young person to achieve and reach their full potential

 

• Acknowledge that each child/young person is an individual and has different needs, which will be met to the best of our ability
