When we invest in our team, we invest in every child in our care. 💛

Our recent Wellbeing & INSET Day brought our teams together for a day of learning, development and connection.

Early Years is always evolving, and dedicated training days give our practitioners the opportunity to explore new thinking, share ideas and keep their knowledge and practice up to date.

They’re also an important opportunity to focus on staff wellbeing, strengthen relationships and celebrate the brilliant people behind our nurseries.

Because supported, knowledgeable and inspired practitioners create the very best learning opportunities for our children.

And if you’re looking for an Early Years career where your development matters, we’d love to hear from you.

"I can do it myself!" – five little words we love to hear.

Pouring their own drink. Putting on their coat. Choosing an activity. HelpinPouring their own drink. Putting on their coat. Choosing an activity. Helping to tidy away.

These everyday moments may seem small, but they're an important part of early years development.

Giving children opportunities to do things for themselves helps build independence, confidence and resilience – skills that will support them throughout their learning journey.

Discover how learning through everyday experiences helps our children flourish.

A warm welcome can shape a child's whole day.

From the moment children arrive at nursery, we want them to feel happy to be here.

A familiar smile, a favourite activity waiting or simply having someone who knows exactly how they like to start their morning can make all the difference.

Our practitioners take the time to truly know the children in their care, creating the warm, nurturing relationships that sit at the heart of life at The Mulberry Bush.

Come and meet the people who make our nurseries feel like a home from home.

🎒 And just like that… they’re off to school! 💚

This is such a special week for so many of our Mulberry Bush graduates as they put on their uniforms, pick up their school bags and begin their next big adventure.

From those very first nursery days to the confident, curious and independent children they have become, it has been an absolute privilege to be part of their early years journey.

School readiness is about so much more than letters and numbers. It’s about giving children the confidence to try, the independence to have a go, the resilience to keep going and the social skills to step into a new classroom ready to make friends and embrace new experiences.

To all of our graduates starting school today, we are incredibly proud of you. Go and have the most wonderful first day — we know you’re going to shine. ✨

And to all the grown-ups waving them goodbye at the school gates this morning… we’re thinking of you too! 💚

We’d love to hear how their first day goes. Let us know in the comments!

✨ Something exciting is taking shape at The Mulberry Bush Eastleigh…

Our Eastleigh nursery is undergoing a full refurbishment, and we can’t wait to share the transformation with our families.

We’re creating a beautiful, welcoming early years environment that has been thoughtfully designed around the children who will learn, play and grow here.

There may be a little disruption while the work takes place, but behind the scenes something very special is coming together – and our beautiful new garden already offers a glimpse of the high standard you can expect throughout the finished nursery. 🌿

We’re so excited about the future of The Mulberry Bush Eastleigh and look forward to sharing more of the transformation as work progresses.

Messy play is about much more than getting paint on little hands.

It supports creativity, language development, problem solving, fine motor skills and self-confidence, all through enjoyable, child-led exploration.

By encouraging children to experiment and discover, we're helping them develop skills that will support them throughout their learning journey.
