Media & Privacy Policy

Our premises are secured 24/7 with CCTV cameras. This means at all times the people’s ins and outs are recorded and stored safely if needed to access for any reason. All children in our care will be visible through these CCTV Cameras so if you as the parent need any information we will provide it happily.

Risk Assessments

Risk assessments are carried out on a daily basis, before any children enter our premises, throughout the day and at the end of the day. This will ensure that any hazards are minimised and resources/play areas are kept safe. A monthly risk assessment is carried out of the whole building, furniture and resources.

Security

Our nursery is fully equipped with CCTV in all the rooms and areas of the setting including the garden area. We have a secure buzzer and entry system that is accessible only to management who will be seeing children in and out of the setting.

Non authorised personnel’s will not be able to collect children unless introduced to staff.

Settling in procedures

All children are required to settle in to our setting before starting their sessions at Just Kids Daycare. This will ensure that the children become familiar with the setting, rooms and keyworkers that they will be in contact with. This gives us practitioners a chance to get to know the children and work to their individual needs and requirements.

Accident & First Aid

All staff are first aid trained and regularly update their knowledge, we take all accidents and incidents very seriously and staff are aware of procedures that need to be carried out.

Allergies & Allergic Reactions

Staff are trained to recognise the signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction. We work together to ensure all staff are aware of the children’s individual dietary requirements and specific allergies.

Fire Drills

Fire drills will be carried out on a monthly basis. Staff and children will be aware of the procedures and what to do in an event of a fire. Fire doors and exits are clearly marked and kept clear at all times. Fire extinguishers are clearly visible throughout the nursery and fire blankets are kept in case of emergencies.

Medicine, Sickness & Illness

Your child’s care is our top priority here at Just Kids Daycare. Any sickness, illness and medical conditions that your child has we will always cater for and take strict procedures to look after them. It is vital that when you as the parent apply your child to be part of our daycare that you state any illness and medical conditions that they have so we can keep in our records at all times.
