I hate my nursery

I understand you want updates but it’ll be logged when the children are sleeping and you’ll get your Handover at the end of the day. I’d rather the staff be interacting with my child than sitting on an iPad putting on 20 nappies and lunch’s ignoring the children

How often do you get updates? I get a whole bunch of photos on a Friday with a long paragraph about the week’s activities. I also get a 2 min run down of the morning when I collect her every day. They log meals, nappy changes & where she is (garden / classroom) as it happens.

I’d rather staff be watching & engaging with my child instead of on an iPad doing updates & taking a million photos.

We’ve recently moved nurseries so I’ve got two different experiences:
Old nursery, they’d log the day- naps,nappies, meals when they can usually a lot would be uploaded during nap times and at the end of the day. Then we’d have the odd observation- maybe once a month and a weekly updates with pictures of the week and what they’ve been up to etc for all the room parents.
New nursery- they sign her in and out daily and then a weekly observation
If she goes in upset they will send me a photo or update once she’s settled.

Don’t get me wrong I would LOVE to get daily pictures and updates but as said above, I am much happier knowing they are engaging with the children than trying to keep up with photos and feedback constantly. If I’m worried about anything I can call for a verbal update or get feedback at pick up.

We dont have an app with our nursery. I also dont get any photos because I dont consent for them (but mainly because they dont have an app).
On pick up we get told meals, nap times and general comments and that's it. I'd want more if I didnt trust the nursery so much but I know shes safe and (relatively) happy
