Well Natured - Explore. Learn. Outdoors

Hi everyone just a quick update on resources. Next week I will be listing resources and hoping to finally clear the classroom 😭
Im also beginning to think about what to do next so if anyone knows of any jobs or collabs of interest let me know.
Im struggling to decide where and what to do next so any info or advice on jobs out there I would love to chat.
Thanks Nicola 💚

What a gorgeous month I have had spending time with my mindees slowing down, just being, and enjoying every last second with them before my final working day yesterday 😭

We have enjoyed the ever changing weather, playing in snow, blowing bubbles in the icy weather, visiting peak wildlife, learning about the birds for the rspbb big birdwatch, enjoying Lydias sessions .ful.childcare and our final day spent in the gorgeous sunshine at glebe farm.

Im going to miss all the children so much but also very lucky to be able to keep in touch and still see local families.

Thank you to everyone for making well natured such a success. Its all thanks to you parents for the fantastic recommendations and many many families coming through the door and putting your trust in me to care for your children. I feel very grateful and thankful for the amazing role Ive played in so many childrens early years journey 🥰💚

For now its time to reflect, rethink and be nannie Nicky 🩵 but those that know me so well know I wont be able to sit still for too long my heads full of ideas so watch this space 😂

Hi everyone just popping on to say I am closing the business for good from the 28th January. I did post a few weeks ago to share the news but I dont think its been seen and im still getting enquiries.

So a big thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way, from our stay and play sessions at Rudyard, to then moving to the wonderful Astbury thank you to Suzanne for having us, to then setting up from home. Ive loved every minute being a part of your families early years journey and thank you all for the memories 🥰
For now no plans, just some time with our first grandchild little Ronnie 🩵 and to empty the classroom and the garage so watch this space as I sell items on.
Lotsalove everyone and have a fantastic 2026 🥰💚🥂

Just popping on to say hope everyones had a wonderful christmas and I wish you and your families a wonderful new year in 2026.
Love and best wishes to you all # # #
