A Typical Day
CHOOSE FROM THE NUSERY ROOMS BELOW TO SEE A TYPICAL DAY AT LITTLE AISHA.
Children at Little Aisha Nursery enjoy a balanced and fulfilling routine of free play and structured activities, which are specifically designed to support their physical, personal, social, emotional and educational development. Age specific activities are planned by children’s key workers in line with their individual developmental goals and the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum.
Below are examples of a typical day in our Bumblebee, Caterpillar and Butterfly rooms. These routines are varied slightly to accommodate changing topics and themes throughout the year. We are flexible in our approach and observe children’s individual routines in relation to bottle feeding times, sleep and nappy changing times.
Bumblebees (0 - 2 years old)
This is a general guide to our daily routine, it is however dependent on each individual child’s needs. For bottle times and sleep we will follow your child’s routine. One to one Key carer time takes place at different times during the day.
