Job description

Overview

Dreams 4 U Nursery From birth, babies are active learners, investigating the sights, sounds, and feel of the world. They explore the world with their senses when developing. At Dreams 4u Nursery they provide babies with what they need: a safe world, with opportunities to actively explore and develop the three prime areas Communication and language, Physical Development, Personal, social and emotional development. A child's development at this time is huge. Two year-olds are moving from the total dependence of babyhood to the more independent, mobile world of preschoolers. At this age, children are ex-ploring their communication skills, independence and individuality, and learning how to control their important bodily functions. At Dreams For You Nursery they provide the manageable chal-lenges and relaxed environment that two to three year olds need. They still work on the three primary areas that are developing into new skills. As children move into the independence of the preschool years the program for learning changes into a more meaningful and purposeful learning. At this time children should have the confidence and the skills think and act for themselves. Before they go to reception we make sure children have a knowledge of the below areas: Communication and language, Physical Development, Personal, Social and Emotional development, Literacy, Mathematics, Understanding the World, Expressive Arts and Design
