Settling in

Before beginning to attend a nursery school it is essential that the family and the teachers meet for an individual chat so that the teachers can be given information about the child and what he knows, his history and his habits. In this way it is possible to together decide the best strategies for the settling-in process which must happen gradually. This is organised in small groups with shorter hours and separate attendance, for at least two weeks.
