Your Key Person

When your child joins nursery, they’ll develop a very special bond with their ‘key person’.  This friendly face will be your child’s main carer; providing comfort, support and consistency on a daily basis.

The key person approach means your child is being cared for by someone who knows all about their unique, likes, interests and needs. This enhances your child’s development; providing them with a sense of security and giving you confidence that your child’s emotional and physical needs are being met.

You’ll get to know your child’s key person well through face-to-face chats at pick-ups and drops offs. Throughout your child’s time at nursery you can book an appointment to have a one-to-one chat to discuss their developmental needs or anything else you feel is important for your child’s key person to know about. You’re also more than likely to hear their name a lot at home, as your child starts chatting about all the fun they’ve been having at nursery!
