Settling In

Children will have an opportunity to come in for two sessions with their parent/carer before joining, to help them settle into the environment.  These dates can be agreed with the Pre-School.  You will also have an opportunity to discuss any concerns or questions you may have about joining the Pre-School and the Supervisor will also let you know any necessary information.  It is advised that children should start attending two mornings a week to help them settle.  This can gradually be increased over time on the advice of the staff at Pre-School.  The first week of joining they will start their session 5 minutes later.  You can stay with your child until you feel it is appropriate to leave them with the Pre-School staff.  If your child has a particular comforter or toy they are welcome to bring it along with them.
