Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cater for all dietary requirements?
Yes, we offer a diverse range of dietary options to cater to various preferences and restrictions. Our menu includes halal, vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free selections. Additionally, it is essential to note that we strictly adhere to a no-nut policy to ensure the safety and well-being of all our children.
Is the food provided included in the cost?
Yes, at Little Treasures Nursery, we ensure that your child is well taken care of throughout the day. We offer a morning snack, a delicious cooked hot lunch, and a light tea. Additionally, we provide breakfast until your child turns 2 years old. At that point, we kindly request parents to supply a box of cereal for their child's breakfast.
Do the children go outside or leave the premises?
Yes, we offer a unique feature at our nursery - two private gardens, one designated for the nursery and another for pre-school. In addition to these green spaces, we nurture a culture of exploration by taking the children on daily walks within our local village. These walks not only allow the children to discover their surroundings but also help them develop essential skills such as understanding road safety. For the younger ones, our caregivers may take them out in buggies during these outings.
What is the procedure if someone else was to pick up?
We require the primary caregiver to share a password with us, which will be verified during pick-up by the authorized person. Additionally, we kindly request a physical description or a photo of the authorized individual to assist our staff in identification. Consistent with our safeguarding procedures, it is crucial for the primary caregiver to inform both the office and the classroom staff in advance of a change in collection. They will be required to complete a collection form; otherwise, we cannot release the child to them.
Is there a possibility of dropping off before 8am?
Yes, at Little Treasures Nursery, we provide a 7:30 starting time for your convenience, and we kindly request that you make a booking in advance. We acknowledge that schedules can shift unexpectedly, so we simply ask that you give us as much advance notice as you can. This way, we can make the necessary arrangements to ensure our staff is available to welcome you and your child.
What do I need to send with my child?
Named wellies, a named waterbottle, nappies and spare clothes. In summer we ask that you send children with a hat and suncream (both named).
How frequently is the nursery cleaned?
The nursery is regularly cleaned by our dedicated cleaner, who diligently works every evening, as well as on Saturdays for a comprehensive cleaning session. Upholding high standards of hygiene is paramount in all our activities and is seamlessly woven into our planned educational programs.
Do you have CCTV in the nursery?
Yes, we have CCTV in all rooms.
