Bumper Baby News

The stork has been busy delivering a bountiful number of bouncing babies.

Many congratulations to Charlotte B on the birth of baby boy, Ralphy, Sophie on the arrival of Arabella, and Jemma on the arrival of baby Nia. We hope you are doing well and enjoying time with your little bundles.

Also, congratulations and all best wishes to Jess who will start maternity leave in June.

Finally, a big welcome back to Maddi M, Elle, and Grace who have returned from maternity leave.

Exam Successes

Congratulations to Aysha, Daria, Ellie and Tilly who have successfully completed their Level 3 Diplomas in Childcare for the Early Years Educator.

This qualification means amongst other things; they can be a ‘key person’ for the children and be counted in adult-to-child ratios in the nursery. Well done everyone!

New Starters

A warm welcome and how do you do to our new children who have joined the Riverside Day Nursery since August:

Ezra, Iris, Kismat, Max, Mila, Rio, Skylar, Thea, and Iris.

Baby Fever!

What can we say but the stork has been super busy at Riverside Day Nursery with lots of sweet new arrivals and bumps-to-be!

Congratulations to Grace in the Older Babies’ room, who gave birth to a baby girl, Lyla, in April. Also, to Maddi in the Pre-school room, who welcomed a baby boy, Albie, in April, and Elle in the Older Babies’ room, who had a baby boy, Sonny, in July.

Congratulations to Jemma, our Deputy Manager and SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator), who is expecting her first baby later this year. Jemma has been with us for 10 years and will start her maternity leave in November. Wishing you the best of luck, Jemma – we can’t wait to meet your little bundle!

Also expecting babies are Charlotte in the Toddler room, who will welcome baby number seven in March, and Charlotte in the Older Babies’ room, who will welcome her first baby in December. Congratulations, mums-to-be!
