How Webber Independent Works in Partnership with Parents for Early Years Success

Posted: 10th April 2025

Choosing the right early years setting for your child is one of the most important decisions a parent can make. While day nurseries offer convenience, a school-based nursery such as Little Webber provides a distinctive advantage. It’s not just a place of care, it’s a purpose-driven learning environment designed to ignite curiosity, build confidence and nurture future-ready learners. At Webber, we don’t just educate children; we work in close partnership with families to support every step of their early learning journey.

One of our core USPs is the deep, collaborative relationship we cultivate with parents. From the moment your child joins Webber, you become a valued member of our school community. Our open-door policy means parents have regular access to teaching staff and leadership, ensuring transparency, support and real-time communication. We hold regular progress meetings, workshops and family engagement events, so you are never in the dark about your child’s development.

What truly sets Webber apart is the consistency and collaboration that comes from working hand-in-hand with parents. We believe education is most effective when there is a strong, two-way relationship between school and home. Our Early Years team is committed to listening to parents, learning about each child’s unique needs and preferences and tailoring their experiences accordingly. We invite parents to support learning at home with take-home resources and join us for Stay & Play mornings, where they can experience first-hand how their children are learning and growing

Unlike a typical day nursery, our Early Years curriculum is built with long-term educational success in mind. Children benefit from a structured programme led by qualified teachers who specialise in early childhood education. This ensures a seamless transition into Reception and beyond, as children are already familiar with the school environment, routines and expectations. Webber’s small class sizes and high adult-to-child ratios mean every child is seen, heard and supported in a way that truly meets their individual needs.

We also prioritise character development and foundational learning in areas such as phonics, numeracy, communication skills and creative exploration – all tailored through our innovative, topic-based learning approach. Our commitment to academic readiness is balanced by a strong focus on emotional wellbeing, with pastoral care that is second to none. Webber children are encouraged to explore, question and engage in an environment where they feel safe and inspired to learn.

At Webber, we celebrate every child’s achievements and milestones – big and small. Our collaborative ethos extends beyond the classroom, inviting parents to join in on learning celebrations, performances and curriculum showcases. This involvement not only deepens the connection between home and school but also strengthens your child’s sense of pride and belonging. And when it comes time for the next step, you won’t have to worry about preparing for the transition into Reception. Your child will already be part of the Webber family, supported by familiar faces and an educational philosophy that champions continuity and progression.

We understand that choosing a nursery is about more than logistics – it’s about giving your child the best possible start. At Little Webber, our Early Years setting is more than a nursery;  it’s the beginning of an exciting and enriching educational journey. Interested in giving your child the Webber Edge?
