INTRODUCTION
Charter Green Day Nursery opened its’ doors to the public at the
end of September 2003.
The nursery is owned by Emma Charter and managed by Angie Thomas. Between
them, Emma and Angie have over twenty years experience of working in
the Early Years sector.
The nursery benefits from a dedicated and experienced team of seven full time and two part time members of staff.
Charter Green Day Nursery is registered with Ofsted to provide full day care for 36 children, 9 of the places are dedicated to the under two’s.
KEYWORKERS
All children in the nursery are assigned a keyworker; this ensures both
children and parents have a special person to relate to and that
all of the children’s needs are met.
THE LOCAL COMMUNITY
Charter Green Day Nursery tries to support other community groups where
possible, using the mobile library, attending mother and toddler group
and escorting children from the nursery to the village pre-school group.
THE UNDER
TWO’S
The children under the age of two occupy two rooms within the nursery. One of
these rooms is dedicated to the children up to one year old and the larger of
the two rooms for the children between one and two years old.
The extensive range of equipment and variety of planned activities ensure that
all babies have fun and enjoy learning while receiving the essential physical
and emotional care.
THE TODDLERS
The children between the ages of two and three years are cared for in the toddler room.
Currently, the eight children are cared for by two full time members of staff.
The focus of the toddler room is on gaining independence while having fun experiencing many different activities. All important social skills are introduced and reinforced in preparation for moving on to the pre-school room.
THE PRE-SCHOOL CHILDREN
The Pre-school Room is staffed by three full time and one part time member
of staff. The children join this room when they are about three years
old and stay with the staff until they go to school.
The children are presented with a broad and balanced curriculum, which
focuses on the six main areas of learning, helping children to work towards
the “Early Learning Goals, ensuring that the children are both
emotionally and intellectually ready for school. Progress and achievements
are carefully recorded by the child’s keyworker.
