Therapeutic Childcare Provider

I offer a fun, caring and comfortable environment for your child to flourish and grow. We have an outdoor area and private Forest School space at our local community garden.

Forest School is about giving all children access to child-led learning in an outdoor environment, to explore and investigate the natural world through using all of their senses and natural curiosity.

It encourages children to become independent learners, developing a positive self-image and learning to assess and manage risks in a safe way. Children will get the opportunity to explore through expressive arts and nature based early learning.

My setting aims to:
• build nature into our daily rhythm,
• do age appropriate Montessori activities,
• encourage messy- and creative play,
• incorporate outings to animal parks and farms,
• meet all areas of the EYFS.

Play is far more powerful for children, however, than many parents realise. It’s actually the key to learning. Researchers and educators across the world have found that play can help enrich learning and develop key skills such as enquiry, expression, experimentation, and teamwork.
