Ours is a workplace nursery that offers extended provision. To cover the hours, we have quite a large staff team across two shifts each day, some of whom are part time. Parents can also drop in any time, although most do this during their lunch breaks and spend half an hour or so with their children. While it is a happy nursery, I feel that some of the older children at times play up in front of their parents and with part-time staff. Last week, for example, a child in front of a staff member told his mother to 'shut up' while another refused to tidy up with a new member of staff. Have you any suggestions?
