Harvard Park Day Nursery LTD.
Notes from the management team: Nicki, Tracey and our deputy manager Carol After Boris’ announcements at the end of February, we are well aware that schools will be returning. This may mean that if you have not been attending with us but are wishing to return - YOU MUST contact us before this happens. If your child has been absent for a pro-longed period of time, they made need to be re-introduced to the setting, staff and routine slowly. Please contact us if this applies to you and you are looking to come back during the month of March. As per the guidelines, we will be following the routine we have set in place until we as a nursery feel comfortable enough to change these procedures. We would like to say a big thank you to all of you for being so co-operative and understanding during this time. We are working in partnership with each other and are doing a great job! If there is anything you want to talk about such as help with a home routine, ideas for your children activity wise or even some advice or support with filling in forms as such, do not hesitate to ask us and we will help and support you the best that we can. Brighter days are coming, lighter evenings are starting to appear, the sun is shining on a weekend and we can see more positivity coming - you are doing a great job, keep it up! We would like to say a big congratulations to Amy (from Small Steps) and her partner on the birth of their baby boy, they are already home and settling into parenthood very well! They’ve named him Reggie and we cannot wait to meet him! All of us at Harvard Park send our love and best wishes to you both. Lastly, we would like to say happy mothers day to all of the strong females we have in our lives. Whether you are a mum, sister, auntie, grandmother or best friend, you guys are doing an amazing job and keep it up. Have a lovely relaxing day on the 14th! Please beware of bring food from home: for ALL rooms
We have VERY severe allergies which require life saving medication DO NOT bring in any snacks in children’s bags! If children are eating on the go, please inform a practitioner what they are eating and we will handle the situation accordingly. We are a strictly NO NUTS setting which means children can not be eating nuts or bring nut products into the setting under any circumstances.
Clothing and the weather: This is a serious issues and needs to be addressed Please bring hats and gloves! We don’t have spares on site so please make sure you write your child’s name inside the hat and each glove to prevent them from being misplaced! Children MUST be dressed in trousers and jumpers with t-shirts/vests underneath. We are keeping the doors open to keep a constant flow of clean air through the room to reduce the level of germs within the building. This means no summer dresses or skirts with tights!
Dates for you diary and reminders: • Thursday 4th March - World Book Day: Encourage your child to dress up as their favourite book character, if they do not want to dress up - don’t force them. Sometimes the simplest costume is the most effective, use what you have at home to create something new! A yellow t-shirt and red trousers could represent Winnie the Pooh or a character t-shirt will make a child feel included too. •
Sunday 14th March - Mothers Day - We hope you all have a lovely relaxing day!
