baby room
The first 2 yrs of a child’s life are critical for the development of the brain and language. During this period a child’s life experience plays a fundamental role in the ‘hard-wiring’ of the brain, laying down the foundations for the development of intellect and emotion to follow.
From birth, babies are busy, active learners, who immediately investigate the sights, sounds, and feel of the world. Babies explore the world using their 5 senses when developing their motor skills. Babies bodies learn to navigate the up and down, over and under of the physical world. We provide babies with what they need: a safe environment which is rich with opportunities to actively explore through books, songs, sensory activities and a lot of listening and responding to their vocalisations and words through communication both verbally and using body language/facial expressions.
Our staff have both knowledge and experience of working with babies and provide them with a warm and caring environment where the children and parents feel relaxed and welcomed and foster s sense of belonging. They support the individual efforts and independence of every child. We provide a wide variety of equipment to suit the needs of all children. Examples of the relevant and stimulating activities we provide in our baby room:
- Messy play
