Meet Spencer the Budgie
That’s wonderful! Having Spencer, the Budgie as part of the team offers specific benefits and Spencer create a unique and enjoyable environment for everyone. Interacting with Spencer promotes the children’s social skills like sharing, cooperation, and taking turns. The children watch Spencer’s antics and listening to his chirping brings joy and entertainment, creating a lively and positive atmosphere.
Spencer serves as a live subject for learning about animals, fostering curiosity and inquiry. The children help in taking care of Spencer and it teaches them about responsibility, empathy, and the needs of living creatures. Activities like feeding and cleaning his cage instil a sense of duty and care.
Spencer engages our parents, providing a talking point and a shared interest between staff, children and the parents. Our parents feel connected to the nursery environment, knowing that their children are enjoying the unique experience of having Spencer around.
Our Vision
Fostering children's independence and preparing them holistically for lifelong excellence and future leadership.
Our Mission/Intent
To foster each child's personal, social, and emotional development (PSED) through engaging physical activities, recognizing that PSED skills are integral to every aspect of a child's well-being, learning, and growth.
Implement
• We provide opportunities for children to engage in practical life skills, fostering their independence from early childhood through to adulthood.
• Activities for the children are both child-led and adult-initiated activities.
Impact
• Children become strong and resilient.
• Children develop a positive self-image that reflects their colour, ethnicity, religious beliefs, and cultural traditions/backgrounds.
• Children enter primary schools, whether in the independent or state sectors, with a solid foundation.
What our Parents are saying
"My daughter has been going to Petite Ambassadors Day Nursery for about 9 months now and she loves it! At drop off she's always excited to go in and run around. The nursery is clean and on the app you are able to see what your child has been up to, what they have eaten, if they have taken a nap and how
long which I find extremely useful as a parent.
The children are often taken out to the park or the library and even trips to the zoo, as evidenced in the photos uploaded on the app.
Overall I'm glad I picked Petite Ambassadors not only for its affordability but also for its excellent management as my daughter is learning so much. I would absolutely recommend."

"The team at Petite Ambassadors are fantastic. My son is so happy here.
As well as what you'd hope and expect, they nurture great life skills like manners even for those like him who are so young. I've not seen this done so well anywhere else. And this is our 3rd nursery!
The manager runs the place brilliantly, and her and her team listen and care about each and every one of the children it seems.
All I see is happy children"

"It is a wonderful nursery setup where the needs of my little one are taken care of. He really looks forward to visiting his nursery and has bonded well with the staff and friends. Petite Ambassadors Day Nursery provides a safe and caring environment for my child with regular outdoor activities."

"Our experience with the nursery has been a great one. We feel that our three-year-old is looked after with care and with great attention to him as an individual. There is a lot of thought put into the activities provided and the reporting of the day is great. As he is going to school next year, his
literacy and numeracy are of particular importance and we feel that the activities and attention provided have really helped with these. Although the nursery does not have a lot of outdoor space, the children are always having outdoor play such as trips to the park and Forest School. We are generally very happy with Petite Ambassadors."

"My son has been here for a while and he was uneasy at first now thanks to the wonderful staff he settled in quickly. No more morning cries. I love the activities they do with him, the trips everything. He has a big smile whenever I pick him up."

"My son started in January 2023 and since then he has learnt lots. He is more confident and independent. His carer has been working with me to improve his sleeping too and now both of us sleep much better. Thank you!
I 100% recommend it. Happy baby, happy parents."

"Petite Ambassadors provides a great range of fun, stimulating activities for our toddler. This includes forest walks, trips to the park, cooking, arts and crafts. She loves going to nursery every day, which gives us confidence of a safe and nurturing environment.
The staff are lovely to deal with and we have daily updates of our toddlers activities. We have given 3 stars with respect to the facilities owing to a lack of outside space but this is compensated by outings to Tooting Common or local play parks. The internal facilities are good.
Overall, we are really pleased with the level of service and the care that our child receives. We would highly recommend Petite Ambassadors."
