Acorns (12 - 24 months)

We are registered to take up to nine under twos in our Acorn room, which we cap at six children, with a staffing ratio of 1:3. This room offers plenty of floor space for the children to have access to toys and a messy activity area. The sleep room is attached to the main playroom, where each child has their own cot and bedding.

The Acorn room has its own garden play area, with access to push-along and ride-on toys, sand, water, climbing cube and a mud kitchen. Outside play is part of the Acorns' day so parents are encouraged to provide suitable clothing for these activities, allowing us to make the most of the fresh air and outdoor resources.

Parents have the choice to let their child sleep outside in a pram if they wish.

The daily routine follows the child’s individual needs, such as their feeding and sleeping patterns. 

Every child has their own book, showing how much they have eaten throughout the day, their sleep times, nappy changes and information on what they have been doing.

Nappies

We ask parents to provide their preferred nappies, wipes and creams for nappy changes. These are labelled with your child’s name and stored in our changing room.
