Curriculum

  At Early Days Day Nursery, our curriculum is based on the Birth to Five Matters guidance and forms our early years foundation stage curriculum. It is designed to help your child gain self-confidence and self-esteem while enhancing their social, language, emotional and physical skills. With sensitive support from our staff, children are encouraged to discover, explore and extend their learning through both adult-led activities and independent play. We believe children who enjoy learning will always succeed, so they are free to choose what they want to play with while adults skilfully build on their interests.

Our nursery team focus on providing fun, nurturing experiences that help each child develop as an individual through discovery and enjoyment. We expect all our staff to engage in skilful and sensitive interactions so that play opportunities, resources and interactions indoors and outdoors are appropriate to each child’s level of competence and maturity.

Positive Relationships with Parents At Early Days Day Nursery, we strongly believe that parents are our partners in their child’s education and we make ourselves available ‘whatever the weather’, always ready to assist with a smile.

We use efficient ways of communicating with parents such as the EY Log online learning journal app, email, phone calls and social media. EY Log ensures that every parent or carer receives detailed information about their child’s daily routine, and we send regular posts on EY Log App to our existing parents about the activities of the week and how they can prepare for the next.

Staff Training At Early Days Day Nursery, we pride ourselves on a team of highly qualified, trained and passionate staff – our strength and our backbone.

Children benefit immensely from spending quality time with qualified practitioners who are Wellcomm trained to deliver the Early Years curriculum and create Individual Education Plans for each child. Staff receive ongoing Professional Development Opportunities to enhance their skills, and our qualified team also possess First Aid certificates.
