Awarded Setting: Oakland Hall Day Nursery
Here at Oakland Hall Day Nursery, we are delighted to have received our re-accreditation of Millie’s Mark.
We are a private day nursery which currently has 90 children enrolled as well as 21 staff members working in our setting at present. We are now about to go into our 8th year of being a Millie’s Mark credited nursery. We applied to Millie’s Mark because we believe it is of the utmost importance that all of our Early Years Practitioners are fully paediatric first aid trained so that all staff have the knowledge and are equipped to handle all first aid scenarios.
The process to apply to Millie’s Mark was easy to follow and provided opportunities for us to reflect on our practice as well as implementing ways to continue learning within the setting. Our staff frequently take part in quizzes so that we are able to identify any areas that would need more training.
We have also found that our parents here are reassured knowing that we are a Millie’s Mark credited nursery and that all of our staff are fully paediatric first aid trained. We would highly recommend any childcare provider to look into gaining the Millie’s Mark accreditation.
