Rainbow Nursery is committed to the highest standard of care and education for the children entrusted to its care. To this end, Rainbow Nursery will provide a healthy, safe and happy environment for its children and the highest standards of professionalism from its staff. We encourage our children to initiate their own activities and make their own choices. Appropriate resources are available to encourage independent choice. We have monitored our activities carefully to make sure that they are equally accessed by boys and girls and are likely to give them equal satisfaction. We have provided role models, who promote the concept of equal opportunities and invite people with special jobs to visit the nursery e.g. Lady Dentist, Fireman, Policeman and Policewoman. We have avoided books, pictures, puzzles and toys that perpetuate male/female stereotype roles. This will present children with a positive image. We cook using recipes from around the world and our cooking utensils are as varied as our recipes.
