Baby Room for 3 months to 2 years
Our baby area is a very special part of Teeny Days. For those joining us at this very early age it is paramount we get everything right, not only for your baby but also for those parents who are going back to their career after maternity leave.
We understand that this may be an anxious time for you and our experienced and caring staff will hopefully be able to reassure you. Leaving your baby to return to work is going to be difficult, with many mixed emotions. We think our baby rooms are beautiful, warm, homely and cosy places to be, and we hope you do too.
We would encourage you to visit our baby nursery, maybe even before your baby arrives, so you can ask questions and watch our staff with the babies. Along with parents, grandparents are always welcome — we really do like to meet the whole family.
Before your baby joins us you will have the opportunity to spend time with your baby in the nursery. Hopefully this will make you and your baby feel at home, enable you to meet the special member of staff who will be caring for your baby, and give you time to discuss your baby’s individual needs and routines.
We follow the guidelines set down in the Early Years Foundation Stage framework, which covers the learning, development and welfare of children from birth to five years old.
Parents of our babies (under 2 year olds) are provided with daily care diaries via a secure online learning journal called Tapestry as well as verbal handovers at the door. Your baby’s progress, observations and development are also shared on the learning journals for you to enjoy. We have lots of stimulating equipment for the babies and staff to use. This is a time of great discovery: we will introduce our babies and toddlers to lots of sensory play such as sand, water, paint and playdough, and they will enjoy ample story times, singing and musical activities. Most importantly they will always have lots of love, cuddles and one-to-one attention from our staff.
