Rose Rainbow Steiner Preschool & Kindergarten
Enrolling babies through to
school age
Nursery
6 weeks - 2 years
The nursery is a calm environment that becomes an extension from your loving arms, to ours. Babies from 6 weeks to 2 years old join our nursery family.
Young children flourish when they form secure attachments. Knowing they are protected and cared for allows your little one to venture from gentle arms to exploring the world and those around them. Our nursery is staffed by experienced and qualified educators who are consistent and dedicated. We take the time to get to know your infant well, thoughtfully planning each day to reflect and build on the rhythms and routines of home.
​
Infants feel nurtured and loved by caring educators who work with you to continue your child’s established personal routines—patterns for play, sleep, and nourishment. Life in the nursery is unhurried and peaceful, with educators attentively supporting your child’s need for physical and sensory care, as well as rest and nourishment.
Following the natural rhythms of ‘breathing in’ and ‘breathing out,’ children engage in creative play and exploration using natural resources specifically designed for infants. They enjoy active play in our beautiful outdoor gardens, balanced with quiet and restful moments.
Little ones are naturally curious and learn through imitating those around them. Our nursery educators are thoughtful role models, creating authentic experiences that allow your child to experience a sense of wonder and develop their own unique sense of self and will through playful activities.
We document and celebrate your child’s milestones with you as they grow and develop from infancy through to toddlerhood.
​
Parents and caregivers provide bottles, meals, and nappies from home, which we offer to your child while following strict hygiene protocols. Familiar nourishing foods, the comfort of a known nappy brand or bottle, and treasured sleep or comfort toys from home all help your child feel secure and supported—building confidence in a gentle, familiar environment.
We acknowledge that you, as parents, are your child’s first and most important educators. Our aim is to form a gentle bridge between home and our centre, enfolding little ones in a loving ‘circle of security.’
The nursery becomes an extension of your home’s rhythms and routines—a ‘home away from home’—where your baby will feel loved, nurtured, and protected, allowing them to grow and flourish.
