Our Baby Room

Babies stay in our Baby Room from 2 months old until they are confidently mobile, which varies on an individual basis. Our biggest priority is to provide a caring, nurturing and loving environment. We will ensure your baby settles well into the nursery from the outset by focusing on providing a comfortable and safe yet stimulating atmosphere.

At Langley Gorse Day Nursery, our Baby Room is a warm, homely environment where your baby can play, explore, rest and sleep.

At this age, interactions and communication are really important to support your baby’s development. Our staff devote uninterrupted time to play with, talk to and sing to your baby to ensure they feel content and to encourage their language development.

Creative and sensory play in a stimulating environment is very important and contributes to your baby’s early learning experiences. Babies grow and develop rapidly during their first year, and as they become more mobile, physical play is also encouraged.

Our Baby Room has:

  • A cosy area for children to relax 
  • Treasure baskets filled with natural materials
  • A baby-friendly book and puppet area
  • Dream coracles to aide babies to sleep well
  • Toddle Boxes to support physical development
  • Role play area
  • Access to messy play opportunities
  • Space for children to move and dance with musical instruments
  • Great access to the outdoor spaces

The Role of the Key Person

Babies need close, loving relationships with adults so that they feel safe and secure. Your baby will be assigned a Key Person whose responsibility is to take special care of your baby and ensure they feel comfortable and secure away from home. They will ensure that your baby’s daily routines are consistent with your timings and home routine and that nappy changing, feeding and settling to sleep are opportunities for one-to-one time.

Our nappy changing and toileting space is located just off the room for easy access for our team to support the health and wellbeing of your child. Children are fed either individually or in small sociable groups using our lovely Community Playthings furniture to support children to have as close to a family time meal as possible. Bottle-fed babies are cared for individually, usually fed by their Key Person in our comfortable adult chair.
