Management Policy

Medical illness

Should a child be suffering from sickness, diarrhoea or a suspicious rash, they should be kept at home until their doctor has certified they are fit to attend nursery or they have been free of symptoms for 48 hours.

If a child becomes ill whilst under our care, we shall make every effort to contact the parents/carer. If we feel necessary a doctor will be called or the child taken to hospital in an emergency.

If for any reason a child is going to absent please inform us as soon as possible.

Behaviour Management

At the Chiltern Day Nursery we like to give our children lots of praise and enthusiasm for good behaviour and achievements; equally they need to learn what is acceptable behaviour

Children are encouraged to always say please and thank you and being polite to one another.

If a child behaves in an unsociable way, we need to show them we are disappointed and unhappy, that they have behaved in an unacceptable way. this is doen in a controlled manner, firm but calm explaining why we are not happy and how they should behave. At not time do we touch our children when disciplining them.

It may be necessary to physically remove a child in an emergency situation.

Parents will always be informed when children misbehave and how it was dealt with, equally we shall only be too pleased to praise them.
