Looking after toddlers is a skilled job. A parent leaving their infant in a nursery setting needs to feel confident that their toddler will be well looked after, happy, safe and secure in a comfortable environment within a cosy setting.
At Next Steps the toddlers have the use of two rooms, the first room is a large room full of natural light, a bright stimulating space filled with colourful, exciting and age appropriate toys, giving them the opportunity to explore in a safe environment.
The Play and Explore area is full of resources which feeds young curious minds.
The Quiet Area for relaxation, includes a sensory sleep room with individual colour coded cots and a calming environment.
The qualified toddler room team will ensure that your baby gets lots of attention and cuddles, and their physical needs are attended to at all times.
Menu : our in-house cook will provide your toddler with home cooked meals appropriate for their stage of development.
Working in partnership : Upon enrolment and during the settling in process, you will receive a Cuddly Koalas Busy Day Book. This communication diary will be completed daily by our key carers, keeping you up to date with new routines & recording feeds/nappy changes and general information. As well as starting the recorded Learning Journey, the toddlers will take part in a range of activities to promote their development including messy creative play, outdoor time in their special secure garden and sensory sessions.
All parents should feel free to contact the Cuddly Koalas team at any time to speak to a team member if you have any questions or concerns.
