Key Person

EYFS Positive Relationships 2.2 Parents as Partners
"Parents are children's first and most enduring educators. When parents and practitioners
work together in early years setting the results have a positive impact on
children's development and learning."

                                            

Each child who joins nursery is allocated a key person. A key person has a small number of key children giving them the reassurance to feel safe and cared for and building a relationship with their parents. The key
person is responsible for their key children throughout the day; this will include feeding, changing nappies and filling in their ‘home to nursery’ diaries and any other requirements. 

Every child within the nursery has a Learning Journey File, this file is a file used by the key person to record things the child does during their time in nursery; this will include photographs and observation
(spontaneous and detailed) and as a lovely memento of your child's time with us.

Your child's keyperson will share this file with you during informal parents evenings or you can ask to look at the file at anytime.
