Employer Description:Pebbles Day Nursery has been part of Naturally Curious Childcare since 2011. Currently we can look after children from three months until they leave for school after their fourth birthday. We have three main playrooms at the setting, including baby unit. Pebbles Day Nursery follows the Curiosity Approach method of teaching and learning, the nursery is filled with open end resources to inspire and make little minds inquisitive to the wider world. The homely 12 place baby room is fully equipped to deal with everything the under twos can (quite literally at times) throw at us. With staff ratios of 3:1 it’s a safe and peaceful environment that enables learning opportunities and positive relationships for all. Practitioners use what they have known about the children to plan learning invitations to entice your children covering all areas of learning such as adventurous play promoting physical development, personal, social and emotional development plus the skills to stay safe and manage appropriate risks. Provocations are provided to encourage learning opportunities and extend the children’s knowledge and understanding. Resources and equipment are often changed to promote curiosity and imagination to explore the environment around them becoming confident little people. We love to get creative with a wide range of paints, sand, water and other art materials so please dress your child for mess on a nursery day. School readiness is a key part in our early year’s environment - school readiness is known as something that a child should be achieving before starting reception. As early years educators we have an important role to play in supporting and promoting school readiness and transitions. Sometimes we feel pressure to get our children 'school ready' but most children will gain the important characteristics and skills to transaction to school within our approach. It's not all about writing their names or counting up to 10 but providing children with confidence and high self-esteem which is embedded in them through allowing them to lead their own play, become engaged, ask questions, build friendships, investigate and become independent. Do they understand how to stay safe? What acceptable behaviour is? Do they understand their actions have consequences? Will they take turns and share with one another? Can they actively learn, confidently share ideas and critically think? These are some of the vital skills that will ensure your children progress well at school and become confident learners. We, of course cover areas such as literacy and maths but in an interesting, inspiring way. Our children are all amazing, unique and individual people, so let’s allow them to learn in their own way empowering them to be creative and confident little people. Meals are enjoyed together providing socialisation and communication amongst all the children and adults. Children are encouraged to be independent, setting the table, dishing out their food and passing items along the table for their friends. Sharing foods socially with friends is an ideal way to introduce children to healthy ways of eating, and such situations will be all the more successful if the children are free to choose and access the food independently. Social learning happens throughout our meals times as children learn new vocabulary and practice skills such as turn taking, waiting and sharing.Working Hours :Monday to Friday.
