Partnership with parents for childcare in durham

At Clever Clogs Nursery, we understand that leaving your child for the first time can be a stressful and upsetting time, and we will do all we can to make this as easy as possible.

Once your place is booked, but before your child starts nursery, we will offer you and your child the opportunity to attend "settling in sessions". This experience is invaluable and will enable us to begin to build important relationships with you.

Settling in is a gradual process which will help you feel more comfortable and confident in leaving your child for longer periods of time on each visit. By their first day, you will be happy and reassured that your child is content and settled. You are welcome to stay in nursery as long as you like with your child, until you are satisfied that they have adapted to the new environment and are happy.

We will ensure that you are given every opportunity to talk to your child's Key Worker and other nursery staff. Good communication between staff and parents is vital, as it will enable us to provide full reports on the progress your child is making and answer any questions you may have.

Parent's Evenings are held regularly, giving you and your child's Key Worker the opportunity to discuss their progress, needs and development.

Newsletters are produced for parents detailing nursery activities, changes to policies, general information, updates on the nursery staff team and any other information which you, as a parent, should be aware of.

There are notice boards around the nursery, which contain specific information for each play room and the activities or events taking place.


At Clever Clogs, we understand how important it is to communicate with our parents and keep you updated on latest news, promotions and events.

To stay updated, all you need to do is follow the link, log in using the password provided in your information pack and complete the form.

We will send you an e-newsletter from time to time, with lots of useful information for you.
