10 things nurseries want from parents
- To allow the child at least 2-3 weeks to settle in
- Not to prolong leaving if their child is upset, so that staff can settle the child quickly.
- To understand that nursery rules and procedures exist to protect the children, not inconvenience parents.
- To keep staff updated with changes in personal circumstances which may affect the child.
- To keep us informed of children's developments and achievements at home.
- To attach name labels to all belongings which are taken to nursery.
- To encourage children to use the toilet / blow their nose / put on their coat (age appropriate).
- To discuss problems with staff rather than gossip about it to other parents.
- To pick up their child on time at the end of their session or day!
- To receive feedback and thanks from the parents for the care they give.
