How do the children go to sleep with just two cots and at what times ?
Although we only have two cots we only have six babies in a day. We also have a Moses basket and sleep mats for the older children. Within the under twos room we follow each child?s individual routine therefore they are not all sleeping at the same time, however if this does occur we use the sleep mats and Moses basket. If children are finding it to noisy to sleep we take the other children into the garden or upstairs for movement and dance. Sleep times are calm with the lights down low and calming music playing in the back ground. There is always a staff member sitting with the children whilst they are going to sleep and they are monitored every fifteen minutes whilst sleeping. Each child is given their own clean sheet and blanket daily for sleep times and they can access the beds at all times.
