Maureen’s May Update

Dear Parents and Staff

A new month and hopefully a new way forward. I was heartened by a recent piece of research which suggests that children do not spread the virus. So whilst we continue with the lockdown, we pray for a consistent lockdown trend and hope a vaccine arrives as soon as possible.

As mentioned in previous letters, I am assessing our financial situation on a month to month basis and as such there are no fees being charged for the month of May.

To ensure that we adhere to social distancing in the nursery, we have reached our safe capacity and now unable to provide further places at Walker Street at present. Thank you to all our keyworkers who have given us their weekly childcare needs. This has enabled us to offer childcare to some vulnerable families.

Nikki will be on holiday for the next two weeks and Steph McQueenie will be leading the team. Should you require any information, please contact the following numbers and emails:

Maureen Crandles – 07789 937 055 or maureen@earlydaysnurseries.org.uk

Walker Street Nursery – 0131 226 5751 / 0131 241 0058 or contact@walkerstreetnursery.org.uk

Finally, Nikki has been asked for some of our lovely nursery recipes which we will send out every day next week – enjoy!

Best Wishes,

Maureen
