Day nurseries provide a stimulating environment for children to learn. Most day nurseries in the UK are open throughout the year, except during bank holidays. If you’re a working mum, you should bring your child to a day nursery. Day cares organise various activities that help little ones learn important skills in a very social environment.
Below are the advantages of sending children to nursery:
Develop Better Relationships
According to Kathy Sylva, professor of educational psychology at Oxford University, day cares with high standards can help children under two form better relationships at primary school. Sylva also said that the vast majority of children who attend nurseries at an early age don’t have impaired social skills. In nurseries, children learn to interact and socialise with other kids their age. Therefore, children who attend day nurseries have better social skills than those who stay at home.
Prepares Children for School
Like school, day nurseries have rules that children need to follow. These rules can ease your child into a routine so when school comes, your child won’t have a hard time adjusting. All day cares in the UK follow guidelines set by the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). EYFS sets standards for the learning, development and care of children from birth to five years old.
A child’s earliest years are crucial to their later development. Enrol your kids in the nearest day nursery in your area and have them reach their full potential.
