Parent and Carer Partnerships
Sunny Skies Academy recognise that developing strong partnerships with parents and carers is essential to the growth of your little one.
We will establish open and transparent lines of communication from the outset, sharing information with you through transitions meetings, daily hand overs, newsletters, parent’s evenings, emails, and updates through our Blossom app.
We will encourage you to share information through flexible communication methods regarding your child’s interests, achievements, and any challenges you may be facing. We can offer support services and resources and make referrals to additional agencies such as speech and language and occupational therapists to ensure the best possible holistic support can be given to you and your child.
We create a welcoming atmosphere ensuring that all families regardless of background or circumstances feel included and respected.

Our Ethos
Transition into the Nursery
Starting nursery can be a challenge for both parents and their child. We provide individual settling in sessions, working closely with families to ensure that the process supports your child’s emotional needs and is tailored to each child to make the process as smooth as possible.
On your child’s first visit you will visit with them and stay for an hour, during this time you will complete any necessary paperwork, meet your child’s key person, find out about the daily routine and any items your child will need to fetch with them. We then invite your child in for an hour on their own, and then a further two-hour visit prior to starting.
We will discuss with you if collectively we feel they are ready to start their pre-booked sessions or if any further visits are required. We advise that your child fetches any comfort items to support them during the transitions, such as dummies/special blankets or teddies.
