Settling in

The process of getting to know you and your child begins prior to their first day at nursery during the home visit. We will make arrangements to come and visit you at home so that we can spend some time getting to know your child before they start. As this is in their familiar surroundings it is also a way of building a trusting relationship together.

All children take different lengths of time to settle in to nursery. You and your child will be supported throughout this process by your Key Person, and the pace of this will be set by your child. We ask that you or another key adult in your child's life is available throughout this process until they are settled. On your child's first day they will start a little later than the other children, so that your Key Person can spend the time with your child. You will stay within the nursery and your child will only stay for an hour. From this point the Key Person will assess what the next stage will be and discuss this with you daily, until your child is fully settled.
