Parent's Forum
Our Parent’s Forum is an ideal opportunity to have a say, voice any concerns or simply to get involved in the ‘behind the scenes’ of your child’s nursery experience – We hold an hour meeting every six weeks at VIP Childcare (we can arrange childcare during meeting if applicable) where we follow an agenda set by the parent’s regarding matters of importance to you, whether it’s room renovations, children’s projects or upcoming events.
We understand it’s not always practical or feasible to attend meetings however we do value your input and comments so we welcome you to participate via our Facebook page or join our Parent’s Forum emailing list. |
"The parents of the children in our care are at the centre and at the heart of everything that VIP” |
Below is two of our valued members giving you an insight to the forum...
- Karen Booth, Parent Forum member
and P1 Transition leader P1 Transition Group |
" I have been involved with the parent’s forum over 5 years now and am the proud mum of a VIP graduate and my youngest is in the Toddlers. Throughout the years VIP staff have offered a tremendous amount of support to me and my family, going above and beyond on a regular basis. My son was very poorly and required two major operations during his time at nursery. The staff were amazing in preparing him for his ordeal, there was even a VIP hospital set up with the entire children role playing! After returning I was touched by the empathy and understanding shown by all his friends, I've always known the nursery provision was very special but to see it before my eyes was nothing short of magical. The forum meetings allow me to keep up with all the nursery business, including staffing, policies, building issues, updates from the provisions, plus we get to do the fun stuff too - the fundraisers!!! I'm currently serving as the chairperson for the forum, a role I could never have envisaged taking on 5 years ago. From a personal perspective, coming to the meetings has increased my confidence from someone very shy to realising I can voice my opinion effectively. Overall, it's exciting being at the forefront of such a forward thinking unique nursery. VIP has big ideas - can't wait to see them develop and flourish!" |
