New opening times...

14^th August 2020

Dear Parents/Carers

Here at Bentley Child Care we value our service user’s feedback and work needs. We listen to

what our parents want and evaluate how we can best meet those needs.

We are aware that a lot of parents have to do a really quick drop off at 8am to enable them to get to work on time, with that in mind we have decided to change our opening time to 7.45am from Monday 7^th September in line with the children returning to school. We are hoping this will help to stagger in the children, providing a safer environment for both children and parents when they arrive whilst helping to maintain social distancing in and around both Reception Areas.

We would like to thank you all for your continued support through these unprecedented times.

Regards

Andria Holmes

Nursery Manager

Foundation for Learning. Class of 2020!

We would like to take this opportunity to wish all of the children in our Foundation for Learning class good luck as they start their new journeys at school.

Important information for parents

If your child is returning to Nursery on the 1st of June we have put the following procedures in place to ensure social distancing:

We ask that only one parent drops off and collects children
Parents to remain in their cars until the Nursery is open at 8am and then use the 2m indicators to keep a safe distance
Both entrances will be open- Extended Services and Tweenies please use the 1st Reception and Rainbows and Explorers please use the 2nd entrance
Children will be collected and brought to Reception by a member of staff to reduce the amount of people in the Nursery, except for Babies
Nursery can provide a limited selection of hot meals or if you prefer you can send in a lunch box
Children will have their own educational resource pack and will be taught in very small groups of no more than 8 children
The centre has detailed risk assessments that covers every aspect of your child's care and education
From the 1st of July parents are to confirm their child care requirements and a start date this will restart your contract with the Nursery and guarantee your child care place. If your start date is after July then a retainer fee will be necessary to secure your place this will be 50% of your fee.

If you wish to discuss anything please do not hesitate to call the centre and speak to a manager.
