It’s important to add at least one video to your daynurseries.co.uk profile. A video is a great way to give parents a chance to get to know your staff and see what your nursery is like, giving them a sense of how you can help them.
You don’t need to use high-end filming equipment. Most of the videos that appear on daynurseries.co.uk are recoded on smart phones. Adding a Video contributes 10% towards Profile Completeness.
How to add a Video
To add a Video to your daynurseries.co.uk profile go to your Control Panel and click on Video on the right hand side.
Alternatively you can access Video via the left hand menu navigate to:
- Profile
- Content Included In Profile Completeness
- Video
Click on the Upload Video button. A box will then appear where you can click on the Select a Video button. You will then be given the option Drag and Drop or Browse to add your video.
If you are an Enhanced or Premium Subscriber, you will be able to upload 1 Video. Platinum Subscribers can upload up to 3 Videos.
What are the specification requirements for video?
For a video to be uploaded it must be less than 300MB in size.
To reorder Videos just drag and drop the Video to the desired position and then press 'Save Changes' at the top of the video box.
To delete a Video, tick checkbox next to relevant videos or tick 'Delete all Videos' and press 'Save Changes'
What should I include in a video on my profile?
Here are a few suggestions to spark your imagination:
An interview with a member of staff or a friendly parent
A ‘day in the life’ of a nursery
Showing a member of staff looking after a child
Staff speaking about what life is like in the nursery and what parents should expect
A video with people speaking makes it more personal and compared to still images, does a better job at giving parents a feel for what their experience might be like.
