Enrolment

Once you have completed an enquiry form, a member of our management team will give you a call to discuss your childcare requirements and book you in for a show around.

You will be welcomed into our setting after ensuring you pass our robust safeguarding checks and introduced to our team. Your child will be given the opportunity to participate in any of our planned activities or they can join you in your tour of our nurturing home from home environment.

During your tour, you will have opportunities to learn more about what we offer here at Little Wing's Big Dreams nursery, our curriculum and enrichments and discuss our communication platform FAMLY..

We have a minimum session requirement of two full day sessions a week. A breakdown of our prices will be shared with you at the end of your tour. You will have a chance to ask any questions regarding funding, tax-free childcare or external support. We pride in our parent partnership and believe this starts as early as your first day in our nursery, information sharing is key to our approach.

To secure your child's space, a registration fee will be required and then you will be required to complete a registration form and sign our Contractual Agreement. We will then be in touch to book in your child's settling in sessions.

Settling In

Our settling in sessions consist of a four day transition period. We like to encourage positive relationships and communicating with your child during this transition to prepare them for the upcoming changes. It is very exciting but can also be very nerve wracking for them so we will be guided very much by your child. The first three sessions are not charged.


Session 1 is 1 hour.
You will be expected to come in with your child on day one for an hour and leave together.


Session 2 is 1.5 hours.

Day two you are invited to come in together and once your child is happy we do encourage you to leave and come back to collect. For collection of your child, please ring the nursery doorbell where you will be asked to provide your password and a form of ID until the nursery team are familiar with you. Please note this is to safeguard you and your child.

 

Session 3

Day three, your child will be welcomed in from the door for a half day session.


Session 4 is for 6 hours from 9:00-3:00.

Day Four, as part of the settling in process this half day will enable your child to get a true idea of the nursery’s routine ready for their first full day.

If need be the settling period may need to be extended and we just ask for your patience during this period until your child is happy to come in independently.

At the end of your child's first term, your child's keyperson will complete our statutory requirement a two year check report, defining age related outcomes. You will meet with your child's keyperson to discuss and implement a plan for how to support your child with their next steps to aid their development.
