Yes, Fennies Croydon, Lower Addiscombe Road has an inviting garden with features such as a race track, mud kitchen, and a sandpit where the children can explore to their heart’s content. We recognise the numerous benefits of outdoor learning. It serves as a platform for children's imaginations to flourish and promotes their mental well-being by providing a refreshing escape. Additionally, outdoor play helps channel their abundant energy into active engagement, contributing to their physical development.
Our founding family is actively involved in daily operations, ensuring a high level of commitment, responsibility, and accountability across our nurseries. This dedication is reflected in everything we do, from our curriculum to our supportive teams, helping every child thrive and preparing them for school.
We have a wonderful manager, Claire, who has worked in early years for 18 years. One of Claire’s key passions is building all-important parent partnerships and recognising the value that this brings to an early years setting. As a mum herself, Claire likes to actively involve all parents in their child’s nursery journey, whether it’s through her open-door approach or by arranging parent events. This creates a space where children, the team, and families can flourish.
CCTV is only installed around the exterior of the building for added security. On the other hand, CCTV is not installed in our rooms. This is because when it comes to team selection, we place great trust in our recruitment process, ensuring we only hire the best caregivers for our nurseries. CCTV would create a ‘big brother’ working environment where the team’s every move is monitored, removing any trust in their professional practice. If parents wish to remain up to date with their child’s activities and well-being throughout the day, our team provides regular updates on our Famly app. We do not allow lone working, meaning there will always be a minimum of two team members with your child at all times, ensuring your child is in a safe and secure environment at all times.
Our Lower Addiscombe Road nursery opened in July 2023. Our indoor and outdoor spaces are custom-designed and built by our team of internal experts to enhance each child’s learning and development.
Fennies’ educators undergo a comprehensive two-day induction with essential training, including paediatric first aid certification. Beyond this, we invest in their ongoing development through role-specific training, one-to-one coaching, and career growth programs, ensuring our teams are equipped to deliver exceptional care and learning experiences.
