Staff

All members of staff are qualified to NNEB/NVQ Level 3 or Level 5.

In Caego Day Nursery Staff are committed to providing the highest standard of care and attention to each individual child. Staff will endeavour to create strong relationships with Parents and children. Our nursery motive on the staff uniform badge explains our feelings, "Where every child is loved". This philosophy is of paramount importance to Management and staff, This provides an extended family atmosphere, where our children can learn in a relaxed loving home from home feeling.

Staff are role models for our children. Their behaviour reflects on to the children.

We use distraction, redirection, also familiar comments and phrases to promote good behaviour. The tone of our voice and simple positive phrases, encourage the children to understand the reasons for our requests. We always find that the children are only too willing to please us.

We never tell our children they are naughty or feed them negative information about themselves. All staff are taught to give good positive input and this is promoted at all times.
