Settling in Sessions
At Leo’s Arnold Day Nursery, we believe that children flourish when their personal, social and emotional needs are met. With this in mind, we offer Settling in Sessions for your child before they start their nursery adventure. It’s extremely important that your child feels safe and secure in their nursery environment before they start permanent sessions.
What to expect from Settling in Sessions
- We will start to build relationships with you and your child
- You will meet our team and your child’s Key Person
- We will start to find out your child’s likes and dislikes, home routine and any specific requirements such as nap times, meal preferences and comforters
The main aim of these sessions is to ensure that you and your child feel completely happy before you start permanent sessions with us.
Our Nursery and Registration Fees
We close for a week at Christmas, and we close on all other Bank Holidays.
Our fees are calculated from the actual attendance that you will have pre-booked, calendar monthly, based on Leo’s fee structure, which are payable monthly in advance, on the first day of each month by Standing Order, cheque or voucher.
To book a place we require a £75.00 non-refundable registration fee for a new family (Please note this fee is not applicable for fully funded sessions).
Our Sibling Discount
We’re always pleased to welcome siblings, and we know that childcare costs can be high when you have more than one child, so if you have more than one child with us, we offer a 10% discount off your oldest child’s nursery fees. Please ask at the nursery for more information on this.
