A little about me...
I enjoy coming to work and spending time with my one-year-old dog, Lottie. I also enjoy walking and watching football.
What is one of the most important things you should know about us? That’s easy: our fabulous teams! Pure and simple.
Dedicated to being the best that a family could ask for, our team are constantly developing themselves through our training program run by childcare and EYFS experts.
It is not just our little ones who are the passionate lifelong learners here at Kindred! It’s all a testament to their love of what they do, and what makes Kindred the incredible, loving place that it is.
DAY IN THE LIFE
Day in the Life
Drop Off
Our doors open from 07:30, where you and your little one will be greeted by a member of our friendly team who will strive to ensure that the transition from home to nursery is a smooth and happy one. Wave ‘see you soon!’ to your child in the knowledge that they will be safe, well cared for and having endless amounts of fun as they settle in for the day ahead.
Breakfast
Our children start their day off correctly with a healthy range of options to choose from, such as cereals, fruit and toast for breakfast.
Morning
Fuelled with a yummy breakfast, children enjoy a range of enrichment activities, adult-led learning linked to focus topics and child-led play experiences. From loose parts exploration and sensory activities to creative arts, imaginative role play and cosy reading corners, there is truly something for every child to enjoy. Outdoor play also forms an important part of the morning, allowing children to build confidence, develop physical skills and explore through active play. A healthy snack is available from mid-morning to keep everyone energised.
Lunch
From 11:30, we enjoy lunch. Mealtimes provide a wonderful opportunity to socialise with friends, develop independence and explore a variety of flavours and textures.
Nap Time
Following lunch, our younger children can enjoy a well-earned nap or quiet time. For our little sleepers, we create a calm and comforting atmosphere using soft lighting, soothing music and cosy bedding to support rest and relaxation. Children who are not sleeping can enjoy quiet indoor activities, stories and gentle play, helping to create a peaceful transition into the afternoon.
Afternoon
Children continue their learning journey through a balance of indoor and outdoor experiences that encourage curiosity, creativity and independence. Whether exploring open-ended resources, engaging in imaginative play or enjoying active time outdoors, every afternoon offers opportunities for discovery and development.
Snack
To keep little ones fuelled and ready for all the awe and wonder their days hold, we offer a healthy mid-afternoon snack, including fresh fruit and vegetables alongside other nutritious options. From 17:00, our children enjoy a delicious evening meal before settling into a relaxed period of child-led play, giving them time to unwind and enjoy activities of their own choosing.
Home
As the day draws to a close, children enjoy relaxed play with their friends before being collected throughout the evening. Families are kept up to date through Satchel during the day, and at collection time your child's key person will share highlights of their learning, achievements and wellbeing, along with any important information. Nursery closes at 18:00, when we wave our final goodbyes and wish everyone a safe journey home.
This is just an example day that the nursery follows, each day is subject to variation depending on activities and the needs of the children.
FAQs
FAQs
How often do the children play outside at your nursery?
We get outside in all weather conditions, safety permitting. Our rooms offer free flow access directly into the garden so the children can get outside as and when they like.
What links does your nursery have with local schools to prepare my child for the next step?
We have good relationships with our local schools. Prior to the transition teachers will often come in to meet the children in our setting. To help children feel confident about the transition, we focus on routines and share stories centred around starting school to make the experience feel familiar and positive.
How do the settling in sessions at your nursery work?
We tailor our settling in process around each individual child and their unique needs. The number of sessions we offer depends on factors like how many days your child will be attending and how comfortable they feel as they get used to our environment.

Our staff-to-child ratios strictly adhere to UK regulations to ensure a safe, secure, and nurturing environment.
Our regulated ratios are as follows:

Toddlers (2-3 years): 1 staff member to every 5 children (1:5)
