Little Lovell’s

☀️ 🏖️ ☀️ 🏖️

☀️ Little Lovell’s is now closed for a summer break ☀️
It’s been an emotional couple of weeks with some very sad goodbyes to our leavers. We wish them lots of luck in their new adventures 😊
We’ve received some really lovely gifts and we are so grateful for them all!
We look forward to greeting some new faces in September.
Enjoy the summer!! 🏖️

☀️ Dear Early Years Practitioners,

This week the UK has apparently decided it’s the Bahamas… just without the sea, the swimming pool, the palm trees, the all-inclusive cocktails and someone bringing us cold drinks every half an hour. 😆🌴

Instead, we’ll be applying sun cream to wriggly children, refilling water bottles for the 47th time, chasing hats around the garden, and explaining why we can’t spend the entire day eating ice lollies.

The plans may change.
The routines may wobble.
The children may be tired.

But if they go home cool, hydrated, happy and full of memories, then we’ve done our job. ❤️

And while we’re busy looking after everyone else, let’s not forget to look after ourselves too.

💦 Drink the water, not just hand it out.
🧴 Put your own sun cream on before the children’s.
🍉 Eat your lunch instead of surviving on leftover cucumber sticks and a rogue rice cake.
🌳 Sit in the shade for five minutes when you can.
☕ And remember that an iced coffee absolutely counts as self-care this week.

If anyone asks, we’re not childminders, nursery practitioners or teachers this week.

We’re part childcare professional, part hydration officer, part holiday rep, and part lifeguard. 😂

Sending love to all the incredible early years practitioners navigating this week’s heatwave.

Stay cool, be kind to yourselves, and remember… you can’t pour from an empty water bottle. 😉

The Nourished Child ❤️
