Chapter One Childcare

Since our founding in 2004, Chapter One has built a reputation as one of the best childcare organisations, supported by excellent inspection reports. We do this by adhering to our core values of providing nurturing, understanding, and stimulating environments with a strong focus on investing in and developing our staff.
Currently, we operate nine childcare facilities in England, Scotland, and Oman, two of which are totally outdoor nurseries. These facilities are staffed by more than 90 people.
In 2004, Jon Gillam contributed to the creation and growth of the Chapter One brand.
Chapter One's group manager is Bettina Spouse.
We want the children to lead their play and experiences and for us to provide a safe and naturally stimulating environment thus resulting in our children becoming confident, responsible, effective and successful in all they set out to do.
Chapter One is devoted to offering the best care and education possible in a motivating and encouraging setting.
Our nurseries offer kids a joyful, safe, and secure environment where they may play, grow, and learn.
While continuing to address the requirements of each unique child and family, we work to assist, challenge, and encourage kids as they embark on their educational journeys.
Our employees are the backbone of our company, and we are dedicated to their ongoing professional growth.
Our mentoring and supervision of staff is at the highest level to ensure that the best care and learning is delivered.
We consider it a privilege that each year, hundreds of parents choose to entrust us with the responsibility of caring for their children while remaining certain that they are in loving, enjoyable, and secure surroundings.
We pride ourselves on having a pro-active management team who lead the teams of staff through continuous development to engage children in early learning experiences.
To guarantee that the highest standards of care are delivered in secure and energising settings, quality measures are in place.
Our continued dedication to offering the best possible standards of safety, care, and education is demonstrated by our HMIe and Care Inspectorate reports.
With over 40 years expertise and an excellent reputation since 2004, we have continuously built upon our successes.
When people talk about their services, they frequently mention providing high-quality childcare. The difference is that for us, it is a fact and something we put into effect in our day-to-day work.
Parents are our partners in learning and we will display excellent communication by not only daily face to face contact and making time for discussion, but we will also share information via Facebook website updates, latest publications and parent evenings, as well as online learning journals.
To welcome families to the nursery and work with parents to establish individualised care plans, we offer a settling-in procedure.
The foundation of our approach to work is collaboration with parents.
To effectively plan for children's learning, early childhood professionals need parents' information on their children's earliest experiences.
Helping out during sessions, sharing their interests, or cultures with children and taking part in discussions about the provision, all provide the opportunity for parents to learn about the life of the setting, about young childrens learning in the setting and how this can be supported at home.
Additionally, a Parent Committee composed of parents from all Chapter One nurseries exists.
