Employer Description:
LAS Nursery is an independent day nursery for children aged 3-months to 5-years. We are based in Hoxton London and open from 8am-6pm, Monday to Friday. We are Ofsted registered and were graded 'good' in our last inspection in May 2023. Our beautiful old schoolhouse building provides spacious rooms with lots of natural light. Our facilities include an outdoor playground equipped with mud kitchens, a water play station, picnic tables and more. We have a sensory room and nursery canteen where our in-house chef serves nutritious meals prepared on site every day. Our babies have a self contained baby unit where they eat together around the table, play and have their naps. We work in partnership with you as parents to understand the individual needs of your child and keep you updated in person and via your online account. We believe in giving children the freedom and autonomy to choose and direct their own play and learning experiences. By honouring children's natural curiosity, creativity, and agency, educators can create a nurturing space that is inspiring whilst also delivering developmental milestones set out in the Early Years Framework. Throughout the week children can participate in different extra-curricular sessions including yoga, music, dance, forest school and French, they also have the opportunity to go on mini adventures to the park and library. Parents are welcome to join us for workshops where you can hear from specialists, ask questions and pick up practical tips on how to approach different concerns you may be experiencing along the early years developmental journey. Previous workshops have included how to help fussy eaters, how to sooth babies with baby massage, how best to support children from multilingual homes, how to support speech and language development at home and learning what to do in case of an emergency in our paediatric first aid workshop. Events are held at the end of term and for various celebrations throughout the year for all the family to join. We share all of the activities at the start of the month so you can see what's going on in advance.
