Nursery Story makes it quick and easy for you to find out where each child is in their learning and development by linking your observations to an online version of the EYFS and Characteristics of Effective Learning. You can also include next steps in your observations enabling you to plan suitable experiences to move children’s learning forward both at the setting and at home.

Using Nursery Story you will always have all the information you need about your children at the touch of a button, giving you confidence to talk about and share the impact that your provision is having on children’s learning and development. Nursery Story will aid you in showing how one child or a specific group of children have progressed since they started at your setting and how you have identified areas for improvement.

Nursery Story allows you to add photos and videos to your observations and link these back to the EYFS curriculum as you go. Not only will parents love this snapshot into their child’s learning and development, but children will love to reflect on their learning and identify what they would like to learn about next.

The Nursery Story Parent App helps you share all the day’s exciting activities with parents instantly to their phone. You can personalise records for multiple children or an individual child by adding your comments and observations.

With Nursery Story you are able to share every aspect of a child’s day including: how much they’ve eaten, wet and soiled nappies, number of naps and what activities they’ve been doing. You can also send parents gentle reminders about upcoming events, changes to routines and even a request to settle an outstanding invoice.

If you have a query regarding the features of Nursery Story or a technical issue you can contact our support team.

At the end of their time with you, each family can download and celebrate these fantastic memories of their child’s early years at your nursery setting.
