Before starting at Ministars Childcare we must have received a completed Registration form along with the registration fee and deposit. You must be open and honest about history, safeguarding or development concerns you may have about your children to ensure we can put in early support to help your child reach their full potential.

Once we have received your completed registration form, fee and deposit the nursery will arrange a home visit where possible. Conducting home visits helps to form relationships between parents, practitioners and children; and starts the process of sharing information. It helps to develop a relationship and build trust in a more relaxed environment. After a home visit, parents often feel more confident in approaching a practitioner with comments and questions.

Starting nursery whether on a part time of full time basis is a major change in your child’s life. Every effort is made to ensure a smooth settling in process but, we also understand this can be very unsettling for both you and your child who may not have had any significant time apart. During the settling sessions, your child be assigned a key person. The key person’s role is to help and ensure that every child’s care is tailored to meet their individual needs
