our ethos

Tell me and I forget. Show me and I remember. Involve me and I understand.

There are Four core values that underpin our Ethos at Roundabouts Day Nursery.

We believe that they go hand in hand in creating solid foundations for children to learn and develop

1. security

Feeling safe facilitates learning and enables children to feel secure. It builds self-esteem and supports building strong bonds and relationships with peers and practitioners.

2. independence

All children are recognised as unique individuals and promoting independence is important from an early age. Being independent promotes self-esteem and self-confidence and encourages children to think for themselves.

3. well-being

Supporting well-being is fundamental to a child’s overall physical and mental health. Building resilience is crucial for supporting children in facing and overcoming problems they may face and regulating their own emotions.

4. resilience

Supporting children to overcome setbacks and build their confidence to bounce back from different scenarios is fundamental for their future development. Resilience supports problems solving skills, self-confidence and allows children to develop skills they need to cope with stressful situations.
