Capacity and Hours

At Shaw Mhor children can be accommodated from the age of 6 weeks to 5 years.  The nursery can accommodate 122 children at any time and there are 2 Baby Rooms, 2 Toddler Rooms and 3 Rooms for children aged 3-5 years. 

  • The Baby Room accommodates children who are under 2 years of age. We can accommodate up to 12 babies at any one time.
     
  • The Toddler Rooms accommodate children between the age of 2 and 3 year olds. We can accommodate up to 30 children aged 2 and 3 years old at the present time.
     
  • Nursery Rooms 1, 2 and 3 accommodates children from 3 years until going to school. We can accommodate up to 80 children at any time.

As children get older, they make the transition to the next room.  There is always a settling in period and staff are sensitive to the individual needs of the child.  Some children may take longer than others to settle, but everything is done to ensure a happy transition.  There are full-time, part-time and part-week sessions.  When your child is admitted to the nursery, you will be advised what session has been granted.  As your needs and those of the nursery may change throughout the term, your sessions may change accordingly.  This will only be done after full consultation.  We will work closely with Tinto Primary School and all other feeder Primary Schools to ensure smooth transitions are then made to school.  Further information can be viewed on the Glasgow City Council Going to School website.

The Centre opens from 8.00 am to 5.45 pm.  We operate a flexible service to meet the needs of individual children and their families.
