We understand that starting nursery can be a worrying and anxious time for children and parents. Therefore, Rainbow Family Centre has created a settling-in procedure which aims to make the transition from home to nursery as smooth, and stress-free, as possible.

First Day at Nursery

Children spend a short time (1 hour) in the playroom to allow them to begin to become familiar with the room and staff. We ask that parents remain in the building for the first day in case children become upset.

How quickly children settle-in, to nursery, will vary for each child. Please be assured that our staff are highly experienced and will work in partnership with parents to ensure that each child is supported and that the settling-in process is individual to their needs.
