Settling in Sessions
At Playtime Staines 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
Fee Calculation – Our fees are calculated from attendance booked in advance, based on the nurseries fee structure which is reviewed each January. Fees payable are calculated by taking your child’s weekly attendance fee, multiplying this by 52 weeks per year and dividing by 12 to give a monthly payment, payable in advance, on the 20th day of the month before attendance ….. by Direct Debit, 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 Siblings Discount
Sibling Discount – If you have a child at our nursery in Staines, or if you’re registering a place for more than one child, we offer a 10% discount off your oldest child’s nursery fees when their younger sibling starts.
Our Special Company Discounts – Emergency Services and NHS staff receive a 50% discount on our registration fee and a permanent 5% discount on their childcare fee’s (valid identification or a valid security card must be presented upon registering).
