In March 2020 things diid not go as planned 

We were all told to stay at home, make sure we wash our hands

We weren't allowed to see our friends, we couldn't go to school

We couldn't go to the park, it wasn't really cool

Our parents stayed with us at home. We learned to fill the day 

To learn together, to laugh together and most of all to play 

Soon the weeks turned into months, but finally it passed 

Everything was normal and we could go outside at last 

Our main priority is the health and well-being for our children and staff as well as following the Government Guidelines through Covid-19. 

Our continued safety measures: 

• We will continue to have no visitors within the nursery: parents will drop off and pick up at the nursery door
• Throughout the day frequently cleaning and disinfecting objects/ and surfaces that are touched regularly e.g. toys/books/door handles/light switches
• PPE equipment does not have to be worn in the nursery except our usual practice of changing nappies/dealing with bodily fluids/serving lunches
• We will continue to use to follow our stringent hand washing regime 
• Show arounds are conducted by appointment only 
• Staff will continue with the Asymptomatic testing (PCR) twice a week
• Parents setting their children into the nursery will continue to wear shoe coverings and masks  

What happens if a child or member of staff become ill during the day?

If a child  or staff member becomes unwell with a new continuous cough, have a high temperature or loss or change in their sense or smell or taste , the child will be isolated  with a member of staff wearing PPE in a ventilated designated room away from the rest of the children until the parent arrives 

A deep clean will be enforced on the nursery setting. 

What happens if there is another spike in Covid19?

We will follow Government Guidelines. 

We have a contingency/outbreak policy that we will follow.

Fees

We will follow our contingency/outbreak plan 

If we have to close fees will not be charged
