Nursery Practitioner

Overview

Lancaster Lodge Childcare Ltd is a family run private children’s day nursery which opened in February 2013. There are a total of three rooms for the children:
Seedlings Room (0-2yr olds), Sunflower Room (2-3yr olds) and Garden Room (3-4yr olds).

The learning environment within each room and outdoor space is set out to meet all aspects of children’s interest, learning and development and includes a wide range of continuous provision. Alongside the continuous provision we provide a wide selection of activities for children to engage in, these could be craft, role play, messy play, cooking/baking, focused small group activities, singing/rhymes, physical challenges including risk taking, fine motor/hand eye co-ordination activities as well as exploratory/discovery sessions.

The environment and the provisions we provide are adapted as appropriate to meet the needs of the cohort of children within each room.
