This is a requirement of the Early Years Foundation Stage framework that ensures each child is taken care of by someone who has an in-depth knowledge of their needs, likes and dislikes.

Meals/snacks include morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack and high tea. Our menus are nutritionally balanced and we have 3 different weekly menus so each week is different. Special dietary requirements are catered for depending on your child’s needs. There is no extra charge for this it is included in the daily fees.

All children have access to water beakers/bottles throughout the day and these are easily accessible so they can help themselves throughout the day.

We have a Facebook page where we post updates about what’s happening at Nursery Rhymes Day Nursery. We will only ever post pictures of Children who’s parents have consent for us to do so. Many parents like seeing and being able to share photos, others do not, and we do respect your wishes. Here at Nursery Rhymes we always ensure the photos that we do share of the children are not their faces (only side profile, overhead images or backs of head) this is because we believe this is the safest way of sharing images on social media for all our customers to see.
