Working together to give your child the best start in life
We have an operational plan in place that explains how the Nursery is run and how the resources, staff, premises and equipment are used to meet the needs of the children.
Our policies and procedures are available below and further policies can be found, for you to see at any time, in the parent’s zone within the hall of the nursery. Please take time to familiarise yourself with the policies and procedures, as we do ask you to sign to say that you are aware of them and that you understand we have a legal duty to protect children from harm and, as a result, we may keep written records. If you are unsure or have any questions, please speak a member of our management team on
01925 636616 or email office@littleangelswarrington.co.uk
In order for us to meet the individual needs of you and your child we believe honest, open and, two way relationships are paramount.
This consists of 3 sessions, all an hour long each, to allow the child time to settle in.

A settling in period of one or two weeks is usually enough for a child to be settled into nursery, although some children do require longer.
We believe in teaching children about boundaries and appropriate behaviour in a positive way. We speak to children in a calm manner and use positive language when explaining about right and wrong. A comprehensive policy explains our practice in more detail, which can be found in the policy file.
We are closed for Bank Holidays (these are still payable) and for one week at Christmas.
When you decide that you would like a place, a week’s nursery fees are required to secure the place. Your nursery fees are payable in advance and via a standing order, cash or card payment. This must be on a weekly payment, a week in advance. We do not accept payments in arrears – you may be given a £10 late fee charge if you continue to make late payments.
In exceptional circumstances, other methods of payment may be considered. Continuous late or non-payments of nursery fees may result in the loss of your child’s place.
Further information on fees and funding can be found here
Yes, this is because we will have included your child in our numbers and will have staffed for them. You also pay to secure your child’s place at nursery, you do not pay for the individual days they attend.
If your child does not have a contagious condition and is well enough to cope with the nursery day, the can attend.
If they have been prescribed medication, it should be brought into Nursery in its original container, clearly labelled with your child’s name and date it was prescribed. You will be asked to complete an entry in the medicine file; including the dose and time of medication was last given, the dose and time it is next due. At the end of the session you will be asked to re-sign the medicine form to acknowledge your child had been given it.
If your child is sent home with a rash, bout of sickness or staff are concerned that they are unwell in any way, you may be asked to collect your child and seek medical advice. Before your child returns we must have confirmation from a Doctor that they are well enough to return i.e. non-contagious (you can ask your doctor for a print-out of their appointment which will have the diagnosis at the bottom).
OFSTED National Standards minimum ratios are:
• 1:5 for children aged 2 years.
• 1:4 for children under 3 years.
• 1:8 for children aged 3-5 years
There will always be a minimum of two members of staff on duty.
Yes, you can either bring them in daily or enough for the week. You will also need to provide baby lotion, cream, cotton wool and wipes.
