Welcome to
Macclesfield
Our Macclesfield Nursery opened its doors in 2002 on the site of one of the town’s best-known preparatory schools, St. Bride’s, on Cumberland Street.
In the heart of the town, Footprints Macclesfield is a Victorian townhouse with a modern but homely interior. We have our own parking for your convenience at our Parents entrance on Riseley Street. Come and see our modern garden room Pre-School within our secure outdoor play area. Your child is sure to enjoy our warm, home-from-home atmosphere!
Our Rooms
Your child develops through our rooms, find out more below…
- Babies
- 6 – 18 months
-
In our baby room we develop trusting relationships with the new babies and their families. We help the babies to feel safe and secure by making strong bonds, using information from their parents so we really get to know them. We plan and implement activities taking into account their interests and stage of development. Our babies are loved, happy and confident; they have strong bonds with their key person and all the staff in the room. They are confident and ready to transition into the Toddler Room.
-
- Toddlers
- 18 – 30 months
-
We sing and read every day; communication and language is embedded throughout all activities and daily routines. Adults model new language and question the toddlers according to their level of development and understanding. We support children to use words to express their feelings, run and climb independently using our outdoor area and local parks. Our toddlers are happy with an ever growing vocabulary, skills to express themselves and a confidence for physical exploration.
-
- Tots
- 30 – 36 months
-
In our Tots room we develop the Tots’ emotional, physical, communication and independence skills which in turn will help them to understand new emotions and feelings particularly during times of transition and change. Staff have an ongoing professional relationship with parents and an open dialogue. This allows staff to have an overview of home life and any current changes to then support our children at nursery. Our Tots are sociable and beginning to build meaningful friendships. They begin to express their own feelings and emotions and become more independent.
-
- Pre-school
- 36 months+
-
In our Pre School room we secure the foundations of learning and prepare our children for their primary school adventure. We encourage children’s physical independence by giving them time and opportunity to put on their coats and shoes and use the toilet; we also support parents with this. We continue to build on their communication and social skills allowing them the opportunity to solve problems and disagreements independently, but with an adult close by for support. Our Pre School children leave Footprints as confident and independent children with a love for learning.
