Home Observations

Help us to celebrate your child’s achievements...Here at the Nursery, we get as excited as you do watching your child grow and develop, and would  like  to  celebrate  all  their achievements -whether  they happen at the Nursery  or  at home with you. 

We would love to hear from you about the things your child enjoys or achieves.  It helps us to create a ‘well-rounded’ picture of who your child really is and is also used in our planning to set the children’s targets. These ‘Home Observations’ can tell us about anything of interest that you’d like to share with us. For example, your child’s favourite bedtime story, the day their first tooth fell out, how they built a tall Lego tower, funny things they say and many more besides!Below are some examples of completed Home Observations as ideas. However, please remember that your child is unique. What he/she enjoys doing or achieves for  the  first  time  is  personal  to  them  and  should  be recognised  whenever  it  takes  place, regardless of when their friends did something similar. Your child’s development is not a race!

Below is a sheet of ‘Home Observations’ for you to use when you wish. Please hand a completed Home Observation to a member of staff whenever you would like to share the information
