At Pride and Joy Day Nursery we understand how precious your baby is to you. Leaving to go to work is likely to stir up all kinds of emotions, for both you and baby. Particularly in the first few weeks. So knowing that your little bundle of joy is safe and happy is tremendously important.
Your child will be in the hands of experienced professional staff who have attended specific training.in, “Caring for and teaching babies & children from birth – three years old ”
To ease the transition into nursery, we use a key person approach which has proven to be very successful over the years. This means that your baby will have a specific person who will care for them directly, so your baby feels emotionally safe. To begin the process, you will work together with your baby’s key person to slowly settle them into the nursery environment. Leaving your child only when they feel secure and comfortable in your absence.
This process will give you peace of mind, allowing you to proceed with your day. Safe in the knowledge that your child is in the best possible care.
