Welcome to the ‘Kingfisher House Day Nursery’, Nursery School & Holiday Club
BABY ROOM
The environment and continuity of care is critically important in the baby unit. The floor has lots of toys within easy reach and access for crawling babies.
TODDLER ROOM
In Toddlers we have a good routine with educational stimulation through play. We primarily use the ECPLC (Early Childhood Play Learning and Care)
A Welcome to Parents
Dear Parents,
I hope that this brief overview gives you an idea of everyday life within our Nursery. When you visit, you will notice the warm welcome and how much fun everyone has.
We believe a child’s learning should be fun and by creating a stimulating environment, we encourage every child’s natural curiosity to observe, experience and learn. This approach encourages a flying start in education. The creation of a happy, stimulating and safe environment is brought about by our committed staff, who share an absolute love of children.
Kingfisher House Day Nursery develops each child’s social skills and the confidence they need in their formative years, providing a sound platform for their transition into school life and so on into adulthood.
Our staff show a commitment to on-going development and adaptation of our facilities. We aim to seek a balance between well-tried principles, parent input and acknowledged values with current trends in “Nursery care and educational thinking”
Facilities
Kingfisher House Day Nursery opened in 2001 and is situated on Hawarden Industrial Estate which is well located with easy access to the A55 for parents travelling to work in neighbouring towns within Flintshire and the Chester area. We are a privately owned single site Nursery registered for 75 children.
Indoor Play Areas
The Nursery has four other rooms that can be used for different activities.
Classrooms are bright and airy with a range of good quality display materials on the walls, including examples of children’s work. The Nursery is appropriately resourced to meet the needs of the Foundation Phase curriculum.
Designated areas provide the children with attractive activity areas.
Outdoor Play Areas
The outside play area adjoins the baby room. The babies have a stimulating, loving friendly and relaxed atmosphere with regular staff on hand to help with their needs. The routine in the baby room is flexible to accommodate our babies’ individual daily needs.
Pre-School Room
Our Pre-school children areas compliment the new curriculum framework. The day is structured, with all areas of learning covered in preparation for school. The room is set up in the morning so that the children have freedom of choice in what they want to do.
Planned Outings
We have designated school run drivers for continuity which helps when the new term begins as it is a familiar face picking them up. During half term when the vehicles are not being used outings are planned to the beach, forests, activity centres and parks to broaden the children’s learning and awareness of the outdoors.
