Presmere Day Nursery provides a happy, caring and secure environment for the children in our care to grow and develop whilst learning at the same time. We believe that children learn primarily through play, developing their holistic skills. We provide a wide variety of activities designed to encourage the children as they learn.

A child’s early years are some of the most important ones in their development, we believe that it is vitally important that children are happy and recognised as individuals which will in turn lead to them becoming willing learners and if we can send the children who come to us off as happy, confident individuals then we have played our part in their learning and development for the future.

Every child that attends Presmere will have a Learning Journal which is an individual record of their learning and development. Through the use of written observations and photographs we can see how each child is progressing and monitor their development. We share this information regularly with parents asking them to contribute and these are always available in the nursery for parents to see and the children love to show them to their Mummy’s and Daddy’s too. These Learning Journals become a unique record of your child’s development and something to keep and treasure. We work closely with all the schools that the children go on to, passing on all the relevant information from the Learning Journal as well as encouraging reception teachers to visit those children who are due to go to school to help with a smooth transition which is vital to a child’s happiness when starting something new.

Every child at Presmere is assigned a Keyperson who will implement that child’s Learning Journal. The Keyperson system ensures that each child has an adult who takes a special interest in him/her although, being a small nursery it enables all staff to get to know the children very well which contributes towards their overall nursery care.
