Our children

It is so important for us to get it right for every child and at Burnbrae we are dedicated to giving every child the best possible start in life and guide them through their own personal journey to develop and learn.
Nurture gives your child the opportunity to take part in small group experiences of up to four children and learn over time the social skills they need throughout the rest of their life.
The nurture practioner will have observed children at play and after completing a Boxall profile will plan individual targets for your child to achieve.
We aim to develop your child’s confidence and raise their self-esteem by forming positive relationships with trust and by respecting the rights of every child.
