Little Stars Nursery – ‘Every Child Should Have a Chance to Shine’
Every parent and carer knows how important quality childcare is, which is why Sure Start Hyndburn is very proud to host the Little Stars Nursery in the Park Child & Family Centre. Little Stars is part of the Neighbourhood Nursery initiative which aims to: “To support the communities of Sure Start Hyndburn so that families and carers give a Sure Start to the healthy development of all their children through play, care and education”.
The Little Stars Mission Statement – Every Child Should Have A Chance to Shine: "A child’s play is their work and their work is their play. Children are their own special person. All children will have the chance to be themselves, learn to appreciate and enjoy others. The nursery will bring learning and fun together and be a place where everyone’s achievements are celebrated.
“Play and learning will be planned and guided by children, parent and carers. Childcare and education will be brought together in an environment which promotes choice and increases confidence; self esteem and a motivation to play, learn and have fun.”
Little Stars, which is OfSTED registered, offers full day care for children aged 0–5 years all year round and sessional day care for 0–5 years all year round. Even though the nursery is still in its early stages, every child’s need is their top priority. Children will get the chance to take part in activities which offer education as well as fun, working to “Birth to Three Matters” guidance and “Early Years Goals”. The Nursery Team has a wealth of experience, and not only do all of them hold the appropriate childcare qualifications but they have also undergone additional training and will update and further that training as needed. They understand how hard it can be to leave your child but in the Little Stars pleasant atmosphere and friendly team members, it becomes a little easier.
Kathryn Whittaker, Childcare Coordinator for Sure Start Hyndburn says:“The nursery has been designed with the needs of local children in mind.”
