Healthy Sleep Habits
At Little Adventures Nursery, we know that rest is just as important as play. Busy days filled with exploring, learning, and laughter mean that children need time to pause, recharge, and reset.
We prioritise restful, nurturing sleep routines to support children’s emotional wellbeing, brain development, and physical growth.
Sleep Times at Nursery
A day at Little Adventures is full of rich, stimulating activities — and good quality sleep helps children make the most of every moment. We thoughtfully build quiet, calm opportunities into each day, so children have the chance to relax, nap, and wake up refreshed and ready for more adventures.

Familiar Routines for Happy Sleepers
When your baby or toddler joins us, we take time to understand their home sleep routine and mirror it as closely as possible in nursery. This gentle, responsive approach helps children feel secure and settle confidently into their new environment.
As children grow, we continue to tailor their sleep needs individually — from morning naps to afternoon rests — recognising that every child’s rhythm is unique.

Creating Safe, Cosy Sleep Spaces
Every Little Adventures nursery offers carefully designed sleep environments where children feel secure and comfortable.
We strictly follow the latest NHS safer sleep guidelines to create spaces that:
- Support safe sleeping positions
- Minimise risk and promote wellbeing
- Offer a peaceful, supervised space for children to drift off
Our staff are trained to monitor and support sleeping children, ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.

Supporting Healthy Sleep Habits
As part of our wellbeing focus, we encourage healthy sleep routines that grow with your child:
- Babies follow their individual sleep patterns, with responsive care
- Toddlers and preschoolers are offered the opportunity to rest for at least two sleep cycles if needed
- Gentle transitions help children gradually adjust their sleep routines as they prepare for school
Rest time isn’t just about recharging bodies — it’s an important part of nurturing emotional security, memory development, and resilience too.

Because at Little Adventures, a good nap is just another step on the way to a great day.
