Corona virus-parents information



Dear Parents/carers,

Following the recent government advice, we will be remaining open until further notice. However, the following new procedures will now be in place with immediate effect;
·       Please do not send your child/children to nursery if they have a temperature of 37.8 or above. Children that develop a temperature during their session will need to be collected immediately. Children should remain at home for 7 days.

·       Please do not send your child/children into nursery if they have a new persistent cough children should remain at home for 7 days.
In the event of compromised ratios due to staff illness the Contingency Plan for the nursery will be followed.
Further actions taken by nursery to reduce the spread of Coronavirus 19
·       No visitors in nursery play areas
·       Cancelled student placements
·       Parents viewing the setting will not be allowed into the play areas
·       Extra door handle wiping
·       Children washing hands on entry to nursery
·       Parents of children with underlying health issues advice to seek medical advice on whether to attend nursery or not.
I appreciate that these new measures may cause some inconvenience to parents but, during these uncertain times we have to follow government advice, safeguard children and staff and do everything we can to contain this disease.
We are optimistic that the nursery will continue to remain open over the coming weeks and months but any decisions to close will be based on the health and safety of our nursery children and in coordination with Public Health England and the Local Authority.
Thank you for your understanding
Tracy
