At Links nursery and Hub we try our best to be as flexible as possible however our staffing is carefully planned around the session times selected by families. If your child arrives later than their scheduled session time, please be aware that you may need to wait until a staff member is available to assist with their arrival.
At the start of each session, you will enter through the main yellow gates and entre through reception area, where a member of the Links Nursery team will greet you and your child. You will be encouraged to help your child find their peg and safely store their belongings to prevent anything from getting lost.
Children will be encouraged to sign in by writing their name, and parents/carers will sign their child in using the Links QR codes located in the front vestibule. One parent or carer will then walk the child through the hallway, where they will be welcomed into the nursery by a member of staff. To ensure a smooth and safe transition, we kindly ask that only one parent/carer accompanies the child through the hallway and that no buggies, scooters, or prams are brought inside. For security reasons, we kindly ask that parents and carers do not hold doors open for others within the setting. Our secure fob system is in place to ensure the safety of all children and staff.
When completing the QR code sign-in, please ensure you clearly state the name of the person who will be collecting your child. If this changes, it is essential that you inform Links Nursery staff in advance. If the name provided at drop-off does not match the person who arrives to collect your child, we will not release the child until confirmation has been received directly from the parent or Carer named on our emergency contact list.
If someone else will be collecting your child, we ask that you use a password system. This should be a simple, one-word password that is shared with both the nursery and the person collecting your child. We will only release your child once the correct password has been provided.
