KABUKI CHILD CARE CENTRE
My son has been at Kabuki since he was 12 months old. It is a wonderful setting.
Steph the baby room manager is approachable and caring and they have a lovely
team. Abbie my sons key worker is a credit to Kabuki she always keeps me
informed, writes reports of his progress and snapshots are put on the online app
with frequent photos. I’m reassured he is in good hands whilst I work. He shouts
to spend time with his key worker when not at Kabuki, they have a close
relationship which makes it easier to leave him. They take the children out to
museums to see the police cars and to the park so far this year. It’s wonderful
to see how well my son has come on since being at nursery. I would highly
recommend Kabuki.

FAQ'S
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NURSERY AND CHILDCARE?
"Nursery" typically refers to a place or facility where young children, usually
toddlers up to around three years old, are taken care of during the day. These
establishments focus on early childhood education, providing activities that
promote learning, socialization, and development appropriate for that age group.
Nurseries often have structured schedules, incorporate play-based learning, and
may introduce basic educational concepts.
"Childcare," on the other hand, is a broader term that encompasses the care and
supervision of children, covering a wider age range from infancy to
pre-adolescence. Childcare facilities or services offer care, supervision, and
sometimes educational activities for children when their parents or guardians
are unavailable, such as during work hours. Childcare can include nurseries for
younger children, preschool programs, after-school care, and even programs
during school holidays.
WHAT AGE SHOULD A CHILD START NURSERY?
The ideal age for a child to start nursery can vary depending on several factors
including the child's development, family circumstances, and personal
preferences. However, many nurseries accept children from around three months to
three years old.
Parents often consider starting nursery when their child is between two and
three years old. This age range allows children to benefit from the social
interaction and early learning experiences that nurseries provide.
WHEN SHOULD I START LOOKING AT NURSERIES?
It's a good idea to start looking at nurseries well in advance of when you plan
to enroll your child.Generally, starting your search around 6-12 months before
you plan to enroll your child is a good timeline. This allows enough time for
research, visits, and consideration before making a decision.

research, visits, and consideration before making a decision.
HOW MUCH IS NURSERY PER HOUR IN UK?
On average, nursery fees in the UK can range from around £6 to £10 per hour.
However, the cost of nursery per hour in the UK varies widely based on multiple
factors such as location, the specific nursery, age of the child, and the
services offered.
HOW TO FIND A NURSERY SCHOOL PLACE?
Finding a nursery school place involves initial research to identify suitable
options based on location, fees, and educational approach. Contact the
shortlisted nurseries to inquire about availability, admission criteria, and
fees. Schedule visits to assess the environment, staff interactions, and
facilities. Once you've decided on a nursery, understand their application
process and deadlines. Some may require filling out forms or paying a
registration fee. If there's a waiting list, consider getting your child's name
on it promptly to enhance the chances of securing a spot. Maintain communication
with the nursery staff throughout the waiting period to demonstrate your
continued interest. You can easily find nurseries in your area on
nurseriesandschools.org
HOW DO I FIND THE RIGHT NURSERY FOR MY CHILD?
Finding the right nursery involves factors like location, educational approach,
facilities, and staff qualifications. Start by researching nearby nurseries,
checking online reviews, and seeking recommendations from other parents. Visit
potential nurseries to observe the environment, how staff interact with
children, and assess if it aligns with your child's needs and your preferences
for early education. Ask about curriculum, safety measures, and opportunities
for social interaction. Trust your instincts and choose a nursery that feels
safe, nurturing, and stimulating for your child's developmental needs.
Additionally, consider the nursery's educational philosophy, staff
qualifications, and the overall atmosphere. Ensure it provides a balance between
structured learning and play-based activities, fostering a supportive
environment that encourages your child's social, emotional, and academic
development. Effective communication and a positive relationship between the
nursery and your family are also vital aspects to consider.
Nurseriesandschools.org is a one stop solution for your nursery searches.
WHAT TIME DO NURSERIES OPEN AND CLOSE?
Most nurseries in the UK typically operate within a range of hours that
accommodate working parents.
Generally, nursery hours might start as early as 7:30 or 8:00 AM and can extend
until 5:30 or 6:00 PM. Some nurseries might offer extended hours or flexible
drop-off and pick-up times for parents who require childcare outside of these
standard hours, accommodating varying work schedules.
WHAT IS THE AIM OF A DAY NURSERY?
The primary aim of a day nursery is to provide a safe, nurturing, and
stimulating environment where young children can learn, play, and develop
essential skills. Day nurseries typically focus on the holistic development of
children in their early years. They focus on fostering social, emotional,
cognitive, and physical growth through age-appropriate activities and play-based
learning.
Additionally, day nurseries aim to support families by maintaining open
communication and collaboration. They strive to create a partnership with
parents or guardians, offering guidance and updates on a child's progress while
ensuring a safe, supportive, and enriching environment that aids children in
their developmental journey.

their developmental journey.
WHAT AGE GROUPS ARE IN A DAY NURSERY?
Day nurseries typically cater to a range of age groups within early
childhood.Day nurseries are for children aged 3 months to 5 years of age.
The age groups in a day nursery often include:
Babies and Infants: Nurseries may have separate rooms or sections specifically
designed for infants, usually from around three months old up to approximately
18 months or two years.
Toddlers: Another group within day nurseries is typically toddlers, ranging from
around 18 months to three years old. These children might be in a separate area
or group within the nursery to cater to their specific needs and developmental
stages.
Preschoolers: Day nurseries often have spaces for preschool-aged children,
usually from around three to five years old. These children might participate in
more structured learning activities and preparations for formal schooling.
WHAT COMES FIRST NURSERY OR PLAYGROUP?
Playgroup comes first. Nursery and playgroup differ significantly in their
formality and educational focus. Playgroup primarily centers on play,
entertainment, and introductory activities like painting, coloring, and
socializing. In contrast, nursery education is more structured, emphasizing
various subjects such as math and language. It serves as a foundational
educational environment, introducing young children to fundamental concepts like
math, language skills, and values in a playful manner, preparing them for later
entry assessments into reputable kindergarten programs.
The atmosphere in playschools is notably relaxed and playful, fostering a casual
environment for children. In contrast, the nursery provides a child's initial
exposure to formal education, setting the stage for a more structured learning
journey.
WHY IS NURSERY IMPORTANT IN SCHOOL?
Nurseries are essential in schools as they provide the foundational education
and social development crucial for a child's early years. They focus on holistic
development, introducing basic concepts like language, numeracy, and social
skills in a structured yet nurturing environment. This early exposure prepares
children for the routines and expectations of formal schooling, fostering
independence, confidence, and the ability to interact with peers and adults.
Moreover, nurseries play a pivotal role in identifying any developmental needs
early on, allowing for timely support and intervention. They serve as the
initial step in a child's educational journey, setting the stage for future
academic success and providing the groundwork for social and cognitive
development that forms the basis for later learning experiences.
WHAT IS DAY CARE FOR CHILDREN?
Daycare for children refers to a facility or service that provides care,
supervision, and sometimes early education for children during the day while
their parents or guardians are at work or unavailable. Daycare centres cater to
children of various ages, from infants to pre-adolescents, offering a safe and
nurturing environment where children engage in age-appropriate activities, play,
and socialization.
The primary focus of daycare is to ensure the well-being and safety of children
while their parents are away. Daycare centres typically have trained staff who
oversees the children, offering meals, structured activities, playtime, and
sometimes educational programs tailored to different age groups.
IS NURSERY PART OF PRESCHOOL?
Yes, nurseries are a type of preschool. The term "preschool" is a broad category
that encompasses early childhood education for children before they enter formal
schooling. Nurseries specifically refer to early education and care centers for
young children, typically between the ages of three months to five years old.
WHAT COMES AFTER PRE NURSERY?
After pre-nursery, children usually progress to nursery or preschool, depending
on the specific terminologies used by different educational settings.
Pre-nursery serves as an introductory stage for very young children, usually
between the ages of two to three, preparing them for a more structured learning
environment.
HOW DO YOU START A NURSERY?
Starting a nursery involves several key steps and considerations:
Research and Planning: Begin by conducting thorough research into the
requirements and regulations for starting a nursery in your area or country.
Understand the legal and licensing requirements, as well as zoning regulations
and health and safety standards that apply to childcare facilities.
Develop a Business Plan: Create a detailed business plan outlining your
nursery's concept, mission, target market, services offered, staffing plan,
operational structure, budget, and financial projections. This plan will serve
as a roadmap for your nursery's establishment and operation.
Secure Funding: Determine the financial resources needed to start and sustain
the nursery. Explore funding options such as personal investment, loans, grants,
or partnerships to cover startup costs, including facility setup, equipment,
staffing, insurance, and initial operational expenses.
Location and Facilities: Choose an appropriate location for your nursery that
complies with zoning regulations and is accessible and safe for children and
families. Ensure the facility meets licensing standards regarding space
requirements, safety features, and amenities suitable for childcare.
Obtain Necessary Licenses and Permits: Obtain the required licenses and permits
to operate a childcare facility in your area. This typically involves fulfilling
regulatory requirements, health inspections, background checks for staff, and
meeting specific standards set by local authorities or governing bodies.
Staffing and Training: Recruit qualified and experienced staff members who are
passionate about early childhood education and childcare. Provide necessary
training and certifications required for working in a nursery, including first
aid and child safeguarding training.
Develop Policies and Procedures: Establish clear policies and procedures for
enrollment, health and safety protocols, curriculum, parent communication,
discipline, and emergency procedures. Ensure these policies comply with
regulatory standards and are communicated effectively to staff and parents.
Market and Advertise: Develop a marketing strategy to promote your nursery and
attract families. Utilize various channels such as social media, websites, local
advertising, and community outreach to reach your target audience.
Starting a nursery requires careful planning, adherence to regulations, and a
dedication to providing a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for
children. Seeking guidance from experts in childcare regulations or business
development can also be beneficial in this process.
WHY ARE NURSERIES CLOSING?
Several factors contribute to the closure of nurseries in the UK; a main reason
for these challenges was inadequate funding levels, which were made worse by the
impact of Covid-19. The other factors include:
Changes in Government Funding: Changes to government funding and subsidy schemes
for childcare can significantly impact nurseries.
Economic Challenges: Economic downturns or uncertain financial climates can
affect parents' ability to afford nursery fees.
Pandemic Impact: The COVID-19 pandemic had a severe impact on many sectors,
including childcare.
Competition and Market Demand: In some areas, there might be oversaturation or
insufficient demand for nursery services.
Regulatory Requirements: Compliance with strict regulatory requirements, such as
staff-to-child ratios, health and safety standards, and educational guidelines
etc can lead to nursery closures.
WHY IS A CHILDMINDER BETTER THAN A NURSERY?
Whether a childminder or a nursery is better for a child depends on various
factors, including the child's needs, family circumstances, and personal
preferences. Each option has its own advantages. Whereas childminders have:
Individualized Care: Childminders typically care for fewer children in a home
setting, allowing for more personalized attention.
Flexibility: Childminders may offer more flexible hours compared to nurseries,
catering to individual family schedules.
Continuity of Care: With a childminder, children often experience more
consistent care from the same individual over time.
Home-Like Environment: Being in a home setting with a childminder can provide a
homely and comforting atmosphere, which some children may prefer over a more
institutional setting.
WHY ARE NURSERIES SO EXPENSIVE?
Several factors contribute to the high cost of nurseries in the UK:
Operating Costs: Running a nursery involves significant expenses, including
staffing (salaries and training), rent or property costs, utilities, insurance,
educational resources, and maintaining a safe and stimulating environment.
Staffing Ratios and Qualifications: Nurseries in the UK are required to maintain
specific staff-to-child ratios and employ qualified staff, which can impact
costs.
Limited Government Subsidies: While the government provides some financial
support for childcare through schemes like the Tax-Free Childcare and 30 Hours
Free Childcare for eligible families, the subsidies might not cover the full
cost of nursery fees. This leaves a considerable portion of the cost burden on
parents.
Location and Demand: Nursery fees can vary based on geographical location and
local demand. In areas with high living costs or high demand for childcare
services, nurseries might charge higher fees to cover their expenses and
maintain quality standards.
Quality of Services: Nurseries that offer high-quality education, trained staff,
specialized programs, and better facilities may charge higher fees to cover
these enhanced services.
