They form the core processes upon which parent partnerships are based

When parents consider placing their child at Little Clown, and at the nursery we strongly believe that Partnership with parents is the most valued part of each day

 

Complaints

There may, unfortunately, be times when misunderstandings arise or you feel unhappy or concerned with the care or education being delivered at Little Clowns Nursery

At Little Clowns Day Nursery, we aim to provide you with the best possible service we can deliver. However, if there is an area where you are dissatisfied, please do tell us and discuss this with your child’s key worker or a manager

Unless we know we are unable to put it right. In the event of you needing to make a complaint we have a procedure to follow ensuring your complaint is dealt with professionally, confidentially and efficiently.

In the event of you not being satisfied then:

Approach or make an appointment with the manager/Director Alison Webber or Emma Pycock who will complete a complaints record and deal with the issue as soon as possible. You will be provided with written account of any action taken within 28 days.

If this is not possible or you are still dissatisfied a complaint can be made to the management committee/owner Alison Webber
