Each key person has a vital role to play in developing secure attachments with their key children, providing a settled and close relationship not only with the child but the family too. Through this bond the children feel independent, happy and secure enough to explore and try out new things in our rich learning environments.

Our key people focus on children's emotional well-being by nurturing close, trusting and supportive relationships.  They continually pay attention to and spend quality time with their key children in all aspects of their day to ensure their needs are met and feelings accepted.

All key persons will develop a strong relationship with parents and children during settling in sessions, daily contact and also nursery events to ensure they show effective shared care for each child.  We invite parents / carers to view and add to their child's learning profile as well as include them, through newsletters, to become involved in nursery activities or to replicate or add to them in their home experiences.
