Watford: Rooms
Baby Room (3-24 months)
Our independent Baby Room has been designed specifically so that even the youngest children in our care can have lots of fun and feel secure at nursery.
We follow your home routine as closely as possible to provide continuity and enable your baby to settle very quickly. With a staff ratio of 1:3, we guarantee there will be lots of love and attention from our highly qualified and caring team.
There are separate areas within the baby room which enable babies to enjoy different, closely supervised, activities during the day.
There is a quiet area so that each baby can get as much rest as they need. Every child has their own cot and sheets, which are changed daily. The room also has en-suite changing facilities.
Toddler Room (2-3 years)
As children begin to discover the world around them, they need new challenges so they can explore in a safe and secure setting. Our Toddler Room offers the ideal environment to have lots of fun and to learn new skills.
With a staff ratio of 1:4, our dedicated team organise plenty of focused activities, there are also lots of opportunities for boys and girls to choose what they would like to do, too.
A nursery routine is followed in the Toddler Room and every day the children enjoy breakfast, circle time, a range of child-led and staff-led activities, lunch, rest, and more activities. If they need a nap after lunch, there is a quiet area where they can rest on sleeping mats.
As your child is likely to be toilet training at this age, we have en-suite child sized toilets and changing area in one room that allows an easy transition from nappy to toilet.
Pre-School Room (3-5 years)
The days are more structured in Pre-School – just like they are at school – with a staff:child ratio of 1:8. Our SchoolReady programme is fully embedded in our Pre-School rooms, ensuring your child will leave us prepared for their next adventure to school.
Rooms are designed to ensure every child can access activities independently, and there is a separate area where children can develop early phonics skills.
Throughout the day, children can busy themselves at the mark making table, art and craft trolley, maths and science areas and the water fountain, all of which develop essential skills.
As a way of encouraging children to be as independent as possible, they serve and feed themselves, choose their own snack, help set up and tidy away activities, and independently use the toilet.
Please note room moves are dependent on the individual children’s needs and development as well as the cohort of children in the group.
