Social Networking Sites

Our Nursery Safeguarding Policy.

We recognise that social networking sites, such as Facebook and Twitter, are widely used by ourselves (nursery team members) and parents. It’s not unusual for parents of children in our care, and even close relatives of parents, to send friend requests to individual staff members. It’s important to highlight that our Child Protection and Safeguarding policy extends to our employees’ use of social networking sites. To meet the requirements of the policy, employees are unable to accept requests by family and friends of children attending the nursery. So please don’t feel offended if we don’t respond to personal social media invites.

If you’d like any further information, please speak to Emma Summersgill or Emma Yarrow.
