In light of the changing guidance on Covid-19, we have updated our risk assessment for you to understand everything we are doing to keep your children, their families and our staff as safe as possible during the pandemic. Read the latest Covid-19 risk assessment. 


What we will continue to do:

  • Keep following government guidelines and legislation.
  • Follow our normal policies and Covid-19 risk assessment.
  • Maintain our ethos of putting the children first, providing support for both their
    emotional and physical development.
  • Keep you updated with any plans we make as soon as possible.
  • Manage the setting in a way that aims to minimise risk as much as possible.
  • Continue to support children who can't attend, via face book and Tapestry.
  • Continue our extensive daily cleaning schedule.
  • Constantly review how we are working to ensure best practice.

Saffron Walden Nursery School staff will also be:

  • Informing the Management if they or any of their household develop any symptoms.
  • Adhering to strict hand washing and cleaning policies as set out in our current Covid-19 risk
    assessment.
  • Using aprons, changing clothing and PPE as per the Government guidance,
  • Following Government advice as far as is practicable.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding how we are staying safe during the Covid-19 pandemic, please get in touch.

Our Amazon Wish List
09-11-2022

We have opened an Amazon wish list, so that anyone wishing to support the nursery by purchasing items such as paint or craft material for use in the nursery, can see what we currently need.


We have had the joy of some surprise deliveries already. Thank you to all who have ordered, and also dug out unused craft items at home, it appears we seem to have these things in our rainy day cupboards but really don't want the mess! That is exactly what nursery is for! 


Thank you, the generosity of our current and past families means so much.

On a sad note we will be saying goodbye to Clare from the Den at the beginning of October, she is off to pastures new! We wish her lots of luck in her new role.


We would like to introduce some new staff! Please join us in welcoming...... Charlie, he is our new apprentice. Anna C, Leanne and Megan have all joined as Nursery Assistants.
