Shoots Training are looking for an enthusiastic, reliable and hardworking individual to complete their Level 3 Childcare Apprenticeship at Hayeswick Day Nursery in West Wickham, Bromley
Hayeswick Day Nursery is a family run nursery which aims to provide high quality day care for children between the ages of 3 months - 5 years in a safe, caring, happy, stimulating and relaxed environment. Each child will be encouraged to develop and learn through a mixture of structured and free play.
We believe that this approach will help children to develop naturally their own unique, social, physical, intellectual, creative and emotional skills and will lay the foundations for reading, writing, mathematical and scientific understanding, in preparation for primary school and the requirements of the National Curriculum. Babies will be given plenty of time to progress within a loving, homely environment at their own pace. We will encourage them to crawl, walk, talk, to be inquisitive and to build new and trusting relationships.
We follow all the guidelines laid down by OFSTED concerning The Early Years Foundation Stage, with an emphasis on having fun and making sure that every child has a happy and stimulating experience. Your child will learn through play and by experiencing a wide range of materials, resources, and equipment, will develop physical, intellectual, language, emotional and social skills.
