Shalom Crèche’s aim is to provide children with a full range of enjoyable & educational activities in a happy and safe environment.
We provide activities which promote the six areas of learning:
- Early experiences in science and early year’s mathematics
- Knowledge and appreciation of environment
- Language development
- Personal, social & emotional development
- Creative & aesthetic development
- Physical development
Children also:
- Learn about themselves
- Learn about the world around them
- Learn about others
- Learn to do and think for themselves
The Crèche is staffed by two part time supervisors and two crèche assistances. Throughout the year students from local schools engage in work experience in the crèche under supervision. All staff are fully qualified and have paediatric first aid training. All staff and students are vetted by local authorities.
The crèche opening hours are Monday – Friday in three hour sessions, Morning 9:00 – 12:30 and afternoon 1:00pm – 4:00pm. We cater for 8 children per session which means we have a total of 80 places per week. A child may have from 1 session up 5 sessions available with each session costing £12.00.
We have a waiting list, so anyone who would want to register their child please call in or contact Lisa or Roberta on 028 9035 2257.
