Parent Parternship
At our multicultural preschool in Brighton and Hove, we value strong partnerships with parents and families. We believe that working together creates the best outcomes for children, and we welcome input from families of all cultures and backgrounds. Through open communication, regular updates, and involvement in activities, we ensure parents feel included and supported in their child’s learning journey.
​
To keep parents connected, we use Tapestry, an online platform that provides regular updates on their child’s progress through photos, videos, and observations. This ensures parents stay informed and engaged in their child’s learning journey, fostering open communication and a collaborative approach to their development.
Settling in
Starting nursery can be an emotional experience for both parents and children, but a thoughtful settling-in period can help ease the transition for everyone involved. At our nursery, we provide a phased settling-in program, beginning with short visits that gradually increase in length as your child becomes more comfortable. This approach allows children to explore their new environment and build trust with caregivers at their own pace. We understand that parents may also feel anxious, so we offer ongoing support and guidance throughout the process. We encourage open communication, welcoming any questions or concerns to ensure parents feel confident and reassured. For children transitioning to the Reception Year at primary school, we offer additional support.

Tapestry Software
Tapestry is an innovative online platform we use to keep parents connected to their child’s progress and milestones. Through photos, videos, and detailed observations, parents receive regular updates about their child’s activities and development. The app allows parents to view and celebrate their child’s learning journey, fostering a strong connection between home and nursery. It also provides a space for two-way communication, enabling parents to share their own observations and engage in their child’s growth and achievements. Tapestry helps build a collaborative partnership, ensuring every child thrives.
