Greetings from Greyfriars Day Nursery. The nursery manager here is myself, Lauren.
Greyfriars Nursery, located in a historic vicarage with a beautiful garden in the centre of Reading's town centre and only a six-minute walk from Reading Station, provides a charming and comfortable setting for kids between the ages of three months and five years.
All children should get a combination of care and education in a fun and relaxing setting.
To foster a genuine love of learning, provide an atmosphere that supports fundamental reading, science, problem-solving, physical development, relationship-building, and a genuine sense of pleasure.
To deliver the greatest Early Years education in a secure, interesting, and enjoyable setting, our passionate, caring, and professional team collaborates closely with parents.
The minimum qualification for senior employees and room leaders is an NVQ Level 3 in Childcare, Early Years Educator, or an equivalent. All of these individuals are certified nursery nurses.
We provide all of our employees thorough introduction and development training so they completely comprehend our culture and rules and can keep improving their abilities.
