Why not arrange an appointment for you and your child to visit us, where you can see for yourself how your child will be cared for at Abigail’s?
We welcome parents to visit Abigail's, either in the morning or the afternoon, when you will be able to see how your child will be cared for, as well as having the opportunity to chat with our Nursery Nurses. Please feel free to bring your child if you want them to experience any of the activities at the nursery.
During the appointment, we will talk through the procedure for you to secure a place at the nursery.
Settling-into Abigail’s
Our Settling-In Policy is flexible and adaptable to suit the needs of each child. We offer each child three no-cost “settling-in” sessions.
The first session usually lasts about an hour and is an opportunity for you to meet your child’s Key Worker, who will discuss with you the daily routines any special requirements / preferences / dislikes, and the types of activities in which your child will take part.
The second session is usually 2 hours. We encourage you to leave your child with their Key Worker, to gently ease your child into the routines of the nursery.
The third session follows the same routine as the second session.
We never rush the settling-in process as we understand how important it is for children and parents to feel comfortable with their new environment.
