Mayfield Nursery has been established for over thirty years and caters for children from 6 weeks to 5 years. Our qualified and experienced staff work as a team to create a safe, flexible, happy and educational environment where you can leave your child with confidence while you are at work.
The Nursery is inspected annually by the Care Inspectorate and is also in Partnership with Glasgow City Council for funding in relation to 3 –5 year olds. To participate in this we are also inspected by H.M.I. Inspectors to ensure our educational programme adheres to the Scottish Executives Curriculum – This report is available for the parents to read.
The health and happiness of the children in our care is our main concern, with facilities available for educational, social and physical progress and development.
A two-course lunch will be served daily. Vegetarian and cultural requirements can be catered for. A healthy snack with drink will be served morning and afternoon.
A deposit of oneweek’s fee will be charged when a Nursery place is arranged and is non- refundable, to cover administration, if the place is later cancelled before placement begins. Your deposit will be returned on request, provided your fees are up to date, when your child finishes their placement.
The Nursery will close on some Public Holidays for which there will be no charge. Notification of any Nursery Holidays will be given at the beginning of each year and will be displayed on the notice board.
Families who have more than one child attending the Nursery will be given a discount of 5% on ALL nursery fees.
Nursery Fees are payable all year round and will be reviewed once a year, usually in January.
A Quarterly Nursery Newsletter is issued to inform the Parents of on-going and future activities taking place.
Numerous policies are in place in the Nursery to protect you, the children and our staff. These comply with local and National guidelines and are reviewed regularly. They include matters on Hygiene, Nutrition, Child Protection, Safety, Medication and the general welfare of your child. Some of these will be discussed with you at your visit however there are too many to go through and a complete folder is available upon request. If you have any questions on these please consult the Manager.
