THE HATCHLINGS

The Hatchlings

Our Hachlings are our 0 - 2 year group. The hatchlings room is a warm, caring, yet stimulating environment: rich in sensory opportunities. We have our very own, on site, sensory room for your baby to enjoy. We understand the importance of rest and reassurance as much as providing new and exciting opportunities for babies. Our carefully selected team, experienced in caring for babies, provide a beautiful balance of cosy cuddles and exciting play.

We are committed to working with you as a family; continuing your babies current care routine is of upmost importance to us. We also provide regular, informal meetings with your baby’s key person to update any routines, interests or changing needs. To support verbal communication between parents and the key person your baby will receive a ‘care diary update’ using our communication app. This is a two-way communication service that enables both parents and carers to communicate whilst your baby is at Poppins. Your baby’s key person will send you photographs of your baby along with notes on feeds, sleeps, nappies, learning and your child’s interests from that day. Whilst you can use it to provide exciting news, special events, achievements at home or any useful notes for your baby’s key person.

We do require that if your child is still having milk feeds that you provide a box of your regular formula powder, labelled with your child’s name. Bottles will be prepared, mixed and warmed as they are needed and we will of course keep the same routine as you have at home. Parents are also asked to provide nappies and wipes packed into your child’s bag daily with a couple of changes of clothes.
