meet our manager - SUSAN
Hello my name is Susan. I have recently joined the Jack in the Box kings Langley nursery but I have worked in a variety of settings since qualifying in 2002.
I hold a CACHE DCE Level 3 and am currently undergoing my Level 5 in Early years Lead practitioner course.
My dream was to care for children since I completed my GCSE in Child development in 2000 and have progressed in various roles ever since.
As a child care professional and also now a parent of twins, my aim is to provide a thriving and enabling environment for children whilst supporting families and my fellow team members in the process.

NURSERY SCHOOL CURRICULUM
At Jack in the Box we follow a structure of learning, development and care for children from birth to five years old. This is called the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and it enables your child to learn through a range of activities.
The EYFS ensures:
- Children learn through play
- Providers work closely with parents
- You are kept up to date on your child’s progress
- The welfare, learning and all-round development of children with different backgrounds and levels of ability, including those with special educational needs and disabilities.

Self Registration
As children enter the nursery for the start of their session, their name card will be displayed. Please support your child at the start of each session to find their name.
Small Group Time
This is a time for children to work daily in small groups with the same practitioner to work on key skills and next steps.
Stories, Songs & Rhymes
Stories, songs & Rhymes are an integral part of every session. This supports their COMMUNICATION AND LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT as well as nurturing their love of books.
C.I.P / A.I.A and Free Flow Play
Children are supported during Child Initiated Play (C.I.P). This is where the children choose to free flow play within the nursery. This includes both indoor and outdoor play. During this time Adult Initiated Activities (A.I.A) are available for children derived from their next steps.
Lunch Time
This is a sociable occasion where children eat with practitioners and peers. Children then have the opportunity to look at books with their peers. We promote healthy eating. Please remember no products with nuts and ensure that your child's food is cut in a safe way for your child to eat.Please look at our lunch box idea leaflet HERE
Rolling Snack
Every day children are provided with fruit, water, milk and other snacks throughout their session. Fresh water is available all day.
Open Classroom

Operation Encompass:
Jack in the box is part of Operation Encompass. This is a police and education early intervention safeguarding partnership which supports children and young people who experience Domestic Abuse. Operation Encompass means that the police or your child’s health visitor will share information about Domestic Abuse incidents with our nursery PRIOR to the start of the next nursery day when they have been called to a domestic incident.
Once our DSP has attended at an Operation Encompass briefing/telephone call, they will cascade the principles of Operation Encompass to the DDSP. Parents/ cares are made aware that we are an Operation Encompass nursery within our parental information sharing boards where posters are displayed, as well as on our website. The Operation Encompass information is stored in paper form with all other confidential safeguarding and child protection information away from the child’s normal file. The settings DSP and DDSP have undertaken training on Operation Encompass, the prevalence of Domestic Abuse and the impact of this abuse on children and have discussed how we can support our children following the Operation Encompass notification. Staff are aware that they must do nothing that puts the child/ren or the non-abusing adult at risk.
The DSP and DDSP used the Operation Encompass Toolkit to ensure that all appropriate actions has been taken by the nursery.
