Nursery Apprentice

Overview

The Roberts Day Nursery is a safe and stimulating environment for children from birth to 5 years. We are open 51 weeks of the year from 8am to 6pm. Staff provide a warm welcome to children as they arrive at the nursery. Children happily play with their friends and confidently make choices about what to play with. Staff are engaging play partners and children enjoy their company.

The key-person system is well established and staff support children’s emotional well-being effectively.
