Both our Nurseries follow the same set up and curriculum. You can read all about our various beautiful rooms and age groups below.
Within our Nurseries we have 5 different rooms for varying ages. We keep the environments brightly decorated with attractive wall displays showing the children's work. We always set up exciting activities that are well designed to reflect our curriculum ensuring the best facilities are provided for each child's individual learning and development needs.
Within their room your child will have their own key person who will spark a close bond with your little one enabling a positive attachment so that when you, the parent, depart for the day the child knows they have their special person there for them alongside the rest of the team. This person will be there for the initial pre-start where you can get to know each other right from the get go! We find having a key person is vital for healthy communication between you and the Kinderland team.
Our Bumble Bees rooms are for our youngest babies. With our warm professional love and care babies are encouraged to explore using their inbuilt curiosity and desire to make sense of the world around them. Our positive, secure and healthy environment enables children to develop into confident, happy and strong little people! Our staff are highly qualified with a sound knowledge of baby development.
We have a very flexible routine in Bumble Bees which revolves around each babies individual needs. We initially follow your babies home routine and then gradually introduce our routine, depending on the age of the little one.
Our Bumbles enjoy weekly music sessions with Tunes for Tots, physical development with Leaps and Bounds and visits to our local library for rhyme time!
Busy bees is for children around 16+ months and always has lots of activities available for the children to freely explore alongside their lovely staff members. The children in Busy's are given lots of opportunities to begin to develop their communication and language skills as well as building on their physical abilities. They are encouraged to take risks and try new things! We have lots of messy play to engage their senses and help them make sense of the world around them!

Preschool is about guiding the children towards being ready for that all important landmark, their first day at big school! This isn't just about reading and writing, it's about life skills too! The more prepared the children are the easier they will settle into school. Using our curriculum and the EYFS we plan exciting activities for the children in order extend their learning, challenge their abilities and encourage sustained shared thinking.
We aim to help the children learn skills such as the best ways to express our emotions, good manners, dressing ourselves, personal hygiene and expressing our wants, needs and ideas through words.
In Preschool we go on even more outings so that they can experience the wider world, we go to varying places to give children the best sense of awe and wonder! Our most favourite is our woodland adventures to Croham Hurst woods! We also embark on a great adventure to the London Transport Museum when we learn all about Transport in May & June.
Our Preschoolers have French Lessons twice a week, weekly football lessons and physical development sessions with Leaps and Bounds.
