We increased our hours as it became apparent that our son's progression was firmly linked with his days at preschool. We feel the team go beyond our expectations as child care providers, to us, without sounding trite, they are family. Our elder son used to attend two years ago and loves popping in for a chat with the team.
Our son is soon to be moving on to school, we have been reassured that his transition is going to be supported (important as change can be challenging). I wish that families in our situation could have access to child care providers such as Red Bus. We feel very lucky.
We were instantly at ease with the staff and setting at Red Bus and felt that they would offer our children the best care.
The setting is varied with lots of activities to keep them stimulated, entertained and help them develop.
We found the baby
The transitions between rooms are smooth with the settling days making this as stress-free as possible.
The key workers really care about ensuring the children have had a good day and provide feedback each day. Where we are trying to introduce something at home (e.g. potty training), the staff always look to help which makes this much easier.
Some of our favourite things about Red Bus are the garden and Forest School. Forest School especially is a massive plus and something that both kids really enjoy.
We cannot recommend Red Bus enough.
As parents we have always thought that she has had the highest quality of care and that all staff have nurtured her interests
Communication has always been excellent and our daughter enjoys sharing what she has done while we look through her photos and observations on ParentsZone, and we enjoy sharing what she does outside of preschool.
Our daughter loves the outdoors and thrives on the challenge of Forest schools. She has developed many lifelong learning skills.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Our daughter enjoys attending her preschool.
I look forward to seeing his updates online each day when I'm at work. I have learnt a lot about child development through the regular reviews and assessments done by his key worker. They are building good links with the local community.
