Affordable and outstanding childcare in Ilford for children aged 2 to 5 years old
Foundation Nurseries, through fun and engaging activities, aims to create independence, and a love for learning, in all of our children. We believe children learn best when they are able to play and explore in a safe and happy environment.
Our nursery offers child care for children from two to five years old and provides nurturing environments which are tailored to the needs and interests of the children. Through the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) learning areas and developments; characteristics of learning and the children’s interests we create an exciting curriculum which supports our children in their development. We create our activities based on the play styles our children prefer as well as creating new experiences for them. Using regular exercise; healthy meals and snacks; EYFS areas of learning and a friendly, warm approach from staff, we support the well-being of our children.
Our Ethos
At Foundation Nurseries we aim to provide outstanding education and care inclusively for all children and their families.
We believe in building good relationships with our parents based on trust. Our strong parent partnership therefore enables us to work together to ensure a good understanding of the child's needs, leading to appropriate care within our setting and possibilities of supporting learning at home.
Happiness is at the heart of our nursery along with a healthy culture and the caring atmosphere where children feel safe, allowing them to thrive in their development and learning.
Our family feel is embedded throughout the nursery, encouraging children to build strong positive relationships with both adults and their peers. Children learn to care and respect themselves as well as others, with a high standard of empathy and behaviour to help understand each other's feelings. Children develop confidence independence and a positive attitude to learning.
We pride ourselves on our warm welcoming nature and team togetherness. Therefore, creating a strong unit of kind, approachable, genuine and enthusiastic staff. This foundation leads to a stimulating environment creating opportunities around the innovative and exciting curriculum promoting creativity, imagination and critical thinking to fulfil a meaningful journey that we are proud to be a part of.
