Policies and Procedures
The Importance of Policies and Procedures in Early Years Care
Our policies and procedures are an important part of ensuring that we provide high-quality care, education and support for every child in our nursery. They help us meet the requirements of the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and provide clear guidance for our whole team.
The EYFS requires early years providers to have appropriate policies and procedures in place and to ensure that staff receive relevant training as part of their induction. This ensures that everyone understands their responsibilities and follows consistent, best-practice approaches to keep children safe, happy, healthy and supported to thrive.
We believe it is important that our policies are open and accessible to all parents and carers. You can find our current policies and procedures below, available to download as PDF documents.
Please note: Our policies and procedures form part of the Terms and Conditions of your contract with New Beginnings Nurseries. By accepting a place at our nursery, you agree to abide by the policies and procedures that are in place from time to time.
