Toddler & Child Day Care
Glasgow and Edinburgh
The years that your child spends as a toddler are very important. This is the time when your child emerges from babyhood to being an independent little person. At this stage it is important that a child is provided with the correct environment and stimulation.
We provide the equipment and floor space to allow the uninterrupted time your child requires to be able to think for him/herself. It is important that the toddler environment reinforces positive behaviour. Children will be taken outdoors to the garden or nearby parks for fresh air physical activities, which include ring games and action songs.
Our job is to provide supervision, care and proper equipment to ensure that your child has all the facilities that he/she needs.
Birth to Three
All Small World Nurseries’ 2-3 year olds follow the Birth to Three Curriculum which covers 5 key aspects of children’s learning and development:
- A strong child
- A skilful communicator
- A competent learner
- A healthy child
2-3 Rooms
Our rooms are set out into different areas for the children to ensure their learning is challenged in different ways. The room routine in the 2-3 room is flexible to ensure all individual care routines are considered and our staff encourage activities such as art, drama, music, dance, crafts, games, sand and water play, reading and writing, role play, construction, playdough and clay modelling, circle time, life skills, and lots of outdoor trips.
Your child’s key-worker will plan individual activities to encourage and challenge your child’s development. This plan is completed weekly and all observations/photographs and art work is then put into a learning journal which shows the progress of learning in your child’s development, giving you a permanent record of his or her time at nursery.
