Kids In Bloom Prescot Town Centre

Activities: Children participate in yoga and mindfulness sessions and learn about the importance of good dental health.

Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: They follow stringent hygiene procedures, independently managing their self-care needs as they use the 'snuffle station'.

Communication: Despite parents not being able to enter the nursery due to COVID-19 restrictions, staff work hard to ensure that the drop-off arrangements provide parents with time to chat about their child's well-being.

Community Building: Staff share their own heritage and background and teach children songs in other languages. They learn about different cultures and celebrations, deepening their appreciation of the diverse world around them.

Programs and Resources: All children make good progress, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.

Welcoming and Professional Staff: Staff know children very well. They plan a challenging curriculum that builds on what children already know and what they can already do.

Safeguarding Training: Staff attend regular training and leaders confirm their understanding during staff meetings and supervision sessions and through the use of questioning.

Play and Learning Integration: Older children excitedly create a volcano, mixing ingredients together to form a reaction. Toddlers manipulate play dough, developing the muscles in their hands as they squash and squeeze the dough. Babies explore many sensory activities where they develop their confidence to feel different textures and try new things.

Transition to Primary School: Children develop empathy for others. They are kind and caring, just like the staff, who continually promote children's confidence and resilience by using lots of praise and encouragement.

Child Safety Management: Staff are clear about their role and responsibilities. They understand their duty of care to report any signs that might suggest a child is at risk or when a family may require additional support.

Children's Safety and Security: Children are extremely happy, settled and secure.

Happiness and Settling: Children are extremely happy, settled and secure. They quickly develop warm and trusting relationships with staff because of personalised settling-in sessions and a successful key-person system.
