Bunnies Group
For children from 1 to 2 years old
The Bath House offers a warm, nurturing and stimulating environment where children learn through creative play and are responded to as individuals. The children at the Bath House have strong relationships with staff and are listened to and valued. Parents are welcomed, included and able to approach staff with any concerns they have and parents feel happy and confident to leave their children in our care.

In Bunnies Group we understand that for many parents/carers this may be the first time they have left their child in a nursery setting, which could be an emotional, as well as an exciting time for the family. Our staff team are committed to creating a warm and welcoming environment for new starters, and to making to settling-in process as smooth as possible. An individual approach to this process can be discussed to suit the different needs of each child.
Secure attachments are crucial to the settling process, and we aim to build a warm, nurturing and positive relationship with each child and their parent/carer from the start of their time here. We provide a detailed questionnaire for parents to give us all the relevant information we need, to ensure we can provide for every child’s individual needs. Each child will be assigned a key-worker to support them and their parent/carer, and who will be responsible for monitoring their well-being and learning during their time in the group.
Staff ratio is 1 staff to 2.5 children in the Bunnies.
Activities
As your child starts in their new setting, the main focus will be on developing secure relationships with staff and helping the children to feel comfortable in their new surroundings. Some typical daily activities would include;
The Bunnies group has 11 places. Staff child ratio is at least one to three and all our staff have childcare qualifications.
