At Tenderlinks Day Nursery-Godalming, we strive to provide a “home away from home” for the children in our care and their families. Our practitioners are highly qualified and trained in delivering quality Early Years Provision that encourages sustained shared thinking and emotional well-being. We know that the most important people in a child’s life are their parents, and at Tenderlinks we believe that it is our responsibility to create an essential partnership between the nursery staff and parents from the first point of contact. This helps us to demonstrate vital educational values embedded in our daily provision, such as: • Having a positive approach or outlook • Mutual respect • A value for diversity and what’s makes us all special! We will promote a safe, nurturing and educationally appropriate environment, where your child can thrive and grow, by continued evaluation of our procedures, activities, interactions, and routines, as set out in the ‘Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework’. The staff co-hort at Tenderlinks works closely with the Surrey Early Years Advisory Service who not only help us to continually assess our provision, but to identify areas of need and develop strategies as a team for ensuring the quality of care our families deserve.
