Your child’s journey in your pocket: How we stay connected through every breakthrough moment

• Stay in the loop: Catch precious moments from your child’s day as they happen through photos and videos.

• The little things matter: Easily check in on meal times, nap times, and their daily routine.

• Growing together: Share your home milestones with us so we can celebrate them at nursery too.

• Safe and private: A secure digital diary that keeps your family’s memories protected.

• A treasure to keep: You can even turn your child’s digital journey into a beautiful printed book.

Walking away from the nursery gates can sometimes come with a little tug at the heartstrings. Whether you’re heading to the office or settling into your home workspace in Twickenham, it’s only natural to wonder how your little one is settling in and what they’re discovering. At Kerswell, we believe that choosing a Whitton nursery should mean you never have to miss out on those wonderful "breakthrough moments". To keep us all connected, we use Tapestry, a simple, secure app that brings your child’s learning journey straight to your phone.

Real-time milestones from the Forest School to your phone

There is something so heart-warming about a notification popping up in the middle of a busy workday. With Tapestry, you might see a photo of your child’s first "mud kitchen" creation or a short video of them bravely balancing on a log in our forest school.

These updates are more than just snapshots; they are a window into how your child is growing and gaining confidence. Our team uses these moments to show you how playing outdoors is helping them learn about the world. Along with the big "wow" moments, we use daily care logs to keep you updated on the little things, like what they enjoyed for snack or how well they napped, so you always feel part of their routine at our Whitton nursery.

A journey we share: Bringing home life into the classroom

A child’s development doesn't stop at 4:00 pm, and we know that some of their biggest breakthroughs happen during weekend trips or quiet moments at home. Tapestry creates a lovely "two-way street" that lets us nurture your child together. You can easily upload a photo or a quick note about a visit to the park, a new favourite library book, or a proud milestone at home.

When you share these bits of home life with us, our practitioners use them as a way to bond with your child. We might sit together and look at a photo you uploaded of a trip to the seaside, helping your child build their vocabulary while making them feel extra special. It ensures our Whitton nursery feels like a natural extension of your home life, rather than a separate world.

Keeping your memories safe and simple

We take your family’s privacy very seriously. Tapestry is a completely secure, encrypted space where you have total control over who sees your child’s profile. You can even grant access to extended family, allowing grandparents to share in the joy of seeing your child thrive.

The app is very easy to use, so you can scroll through the week’s highlights during a commute or a quiet break. Perhaps the loveliest part is that when it’s time for your child to move on to primary school, you have the option to have their entire digital diary professionally printed. It turns years of happy memories into a beautiful, hardback keepsake to treasure forever.
