A great nursery in Great Meols

Our Ethos

 Smarties Nursery is a small and cosy 'home from home’ style of childcare setting. We try to replicate the home environment so children feel safe and secure whilst you are out at work. This helps children to grow and develop, acquiring essential social skills and the ability to learn.  
With safety and security in mind, all staff are DBS checked, trained in Paediatric First Aid and Safeguarding; there is an approved fire detection and evacuation system in place and there is CCTV and a door entry system. We are proud to have remained open to Key Workers throughout the Covid Pandemic.
An enabling environment allows children to develop their curiosity and skills whilst exploring alone or with friends. This promotes independence, whilst children know they can seek adult support when they need it.
Qualified and experienced staff ensure their teaching methods are adapted for different situations and scaffold children’s learning; and sustained shared thinking extends children’s critical thinking skills, so they develop skills they will need when they start primary school. 
Key Persons ensure that each child is safe, secure and nurtured and that teaching is tailored to their interests and style of learning. Older children work with their key person to plan their day and long-term projects. Younger children’s planning is based upon current interests and children's individual schemas and learning styles.
