Childcare Funding
Government Funded Childcare

Over the recent years there have been exciting changes in the early years childcare sector that will be a great benefit to families and a positive step towards our children’s futures.

We offer two funded packages at Nursery Rhymes.

For every £8 you pay into an online account, the government will add an extra £2, up to £2,000 per child per year

Our Meal Times

All meals, including breakfast, snacks, including fruit, hot lunch and tea, are freshly prepared by our in-house chef in our state-of-the-art kitchen, with all dietary needs and allergies carefully catered for.

Babies have their own nutritious menu, while bottle-fed infants require parents to provide feeds. Children are encouraged to try new foods and practise good table manners, with weekly menus displayed in the nursery.

For safety reasons, no food can be brought onto the premises due to strict allergy controls.

Policies & Procedures
Behaviour Policy

Staff will use re-direction, early intervention and positive reinforcement.  Any persistent disruptive behaviour will be reported to parents and carers.  The management reserves the right to have any child removed from the nursery who is persistently disruptive and a danger to other children. In such cases, all actions will be guided by our safeguarding responsibilities, and where appropriate, concerns may be reported to Children’s Social Care in line with relevant legislation and statutory guidance.

The Nursery has a responsibility to ensure that all children are developing in a safe and secure environment.  Any concerns that a child is being harmed or injured will be reported to Children’s Social Care.  This decision would not be taken lightly nor in the case of an isolated incident.

  • Regular fire drills, fire equipment and smoke alarms are tested weekly.
  • The nursery has full public liability insurance
  • Children are supervised at all times.
  • Outdoor areas are fully enclosed.
  • Children are not allowed off the premises with anyone other than parent/carer unless otherwise instructed.
