From the Plume Avenue Nursery
At Plume Avenue Nursery, we want to give your child a secure, joyful, and engaging atmosphere where they can grow to their greatest potential and, most importantly, have fun. We want to ensure that the nursery is genuinely accessible to all kids and families from all facets of the neighbourhood. Ensure that the local community is aware of the nursery's existence. Clearly state that the nursery accepts both fathers and mothers, other family members and carers, child-minders, and persons from all cultural, social, ethnic, and religious groups, as well as those with and without impairments. To make sure that there is no prejudice, keep track of the children who join the group in terms of their gender and ethnicity. Observe the Code of Practice for dealing with children who need special education. To make sure the organisation is meeting the changing requirements of the neighbourhood and provide the best service possible, encourage consultation with parents and caregivers.
