Starfish Room
Our Starfish Room is our baby room. The Starfish team, with many years of childcare experience, care for babies between 3 months - 2 years.
We care for up to 12 babies at any one time with a ratio of 1 adult to 3 children, but where possible always have extra members of our team in each day.
We offer a warm, friendly and nurturing environment to enable our little ones to learn and flourish.
We provide a variety of age-appropriate toys and resources for our babies to access and explore. As well as lots of planned activities to enhance their development.
Within the room we also have a separate area for the children who are not yet mobile to allow them to have their own space for tummy time, rolling, practicing sitting and crawling in the safety of their own area, they still also have access to the whole room.
We regularly take trips out to explore the local environment, including our local park, farm and library.
We also use the garden situated in the pre-school building where our babies have access to outside toys and enjoy the outdoor environment.
To ensure a happy and smooth transition from home to nursery life, we offer a stay and play session for you to come and play with your child and talk about your child's routine, dietary requirements, allergies and anything else you would like to share with us to ensure the best transition. We will then arrange various settling in sessions until your child feels happy to be left. We also like to visit you and your child in their home environment to build a strong partnership so that your child feels safe and secure.
We work closely in partnership with all parents to ensure our babies are provided with stability and continuity to enable us to offer the home from home experience.
