We’re a brand new nursery in Hendon, providing the highest quality day care and early years education for children aged 6 months to 5 years. OUR APPROACH

From their first words to their first day at school, a child’s early years are an incredibly heart-warming and rewarding time to be a parent. Here at Happy Journeys, we give your child the perfect opportunity to grow, explore, learn and play in a warm and secure environment.

Our preschoolers discovered that art doesn’t always need brushes or careful lines, art can be movement! Inspired by Jackson’s Pollock’s famous action painting technique, they used their whole bodies to splash, drip and splatter different shades of blue and black paint across a large canvas.

As they moved, the children watched with fascination as each splash left a different trace, creating overlapping lines, drops and unexpected patterns. They experimented with how their movements changed the marks they made, bigger movements created dramatic splashes, while smaller actions produced delicate drops and trails.

It was a wonderfully messy, energetic and creative experience, combining art, movement and sensory exploration while giving our preschoolers the freedom to express themselves on a much bigger scale!

🎶 Why music matters in the early years…

A familiar song can bring comfort. A silly dance can make everyone laugh. Singing together can create a sense of belonging.

At Happy Journeys, music is part of everyday life. From songs and rhymes to movement and musical exploration, we give children plenty of opportunities to listen, join in and find their own way to express themselves.

Infants enjoyed exploring the playdough using their hands and a range of tools. They had fun pressing, rolling, squeezing and scooping the playdough, developing their fine motor skills, hand strength and hand-eye coordination. They also enjoyed exploring the pasta and insects, picking them up, moving them around and creating their own little scenes while discovering different textures and shapes.

The babies enjoyed exploring the musical instrument area. They explored different instruments, baby dolls, textures and patterns, while listening to music from different cultures and multilingual songs. The babies developed their fine motor skills by shaking the maracas, tapping the instruments and reaching for the hanging scarves.

They enjoyed pulling and touching the scarves, developing their hand-eye coordination and sensory exploration.

In preschool we celebrated 'Onam', the harvest festival celebrated by people of Kerala, a state in southern India. We made flower garlands and talked about the story behind Onam and Onam sadya as well as traditional activities such as boat race and tug of war. We also talked about traditional folk art such as Kathakali and Mohiniyatam.

Those first little teeth are worth looking after from the moment they appear. 🤍

Brushing can sometimes be a challenge, so try making it part of a predictable routine. Sing a song, brush alongside your little one, or let them have a go before you help finish the job.

The babies enjoyed a lovely Baby Yoga session today, through gentle movements, exploring different positions, mirrors and musical instruments, the babies developed their physical skills, balance, coordination and body awareness. They also strengthened their fine and gross motor skills while enjoying music, movement and sensory exploration.

There’s no such thing as starting too early when it comes to sharing stories. 🤍

Reading together isn't about teaching your little one to read just yet. It’s about cuddling up, listening to your voice, looking at pictures, discovering new words and enjoying time together.

Our little explorers took on an exciting gross motor bridge-crossing challenge! Using a single plank and holding onto a rope for support, the toddlers carefully shuffled from one side to the other, concentrating on their balance and body control.

This activity supported the development of core strength, coordination, spatial awareness and gross motor skills, while encouraging children to shift their weight, maintain stability and confidently navigate an uneven surface. It also helped build focus, confidence and a sense of achievement as they completed the challenge.

Infants explored The Very Hungry Caterpillar with colourful foods and caterpillars, supporting language, imagination and fine motor skills, followed by pea, corn and broccoli water play with cooking utensils to encourage sensory exploration, hand-eye coordination and early pretend play.
