High-quality early years settings recognise that supporting a child also means supporting their family. Strong partnerships with parents and carers create consistency between home and nursery, helping children feel secure and understood.
Open communication allows families to share important information about their child’s needs, routines and interests. This collaborative approach ensures that care and learning experiences are tailored to each individual child.
Nurseries also offer reassurance and guidance during key transitions, such as starting nursery, moving rooms or preparing for school. Having trusted professionals available to offer advice and support can make these moments feel less overwhelming for families.
By building respectful, trusting relationships with parents and carers, nurseries create a supportive community where children and families can thrive together.
