At Little Owls, our passionate and experienced team provide engaging and exciting learning opportunities in an environment that is safe, secure and sparks curiosity. We place a strong emphasis on the desire to help all children reach their full potential enabling them to progress through life being independent, confident, having respect for others and developing positive values. Our ‘In The Moment’ planning style allows our Early Years Educators to be present and instrumental in your child’s learning journey which is tailored to them individually to celebrate their uniqueness. The curriculum that we teach is developed through staff, family and children’s input and is flexible to actively follow our children’s changing and developing interests. Our focus is to provide awe and wonder in our children’s learning experiences where they are encouraged to challenge themselves through play. Boundaries and guidelines support the children in understanding what is expected of them by their educators, peers and environment, ensuring they are safe at all times. Children’s emotional intelligence and its development is fundamental to us as a setting and we encourage our children to be confident in discussing their feelings, becoming able to self-regulate and becoming confident in managing and dealing with emotional situations. Children learn to care for and respect themselves and others, to be sensitive to the needs and feelings of others and to inequalities associated with race, gender and ability with the support and guidance of our compassionate and knowledgeable educators. Happiness and wellbeing are our core values and we actively promote children’s creativity, imagination and unique personalities to develop through a fun and exciting play based learning approach where anything is possible. We are a long-standing setting within the community and have supported thousands of children and families with their first experiences in learning. We are proud to work in partnership with other local businesses to provide extra-curricular activities for our children such as swimming, dance classes and yoga. We work with parents and carers as partners and welcome any ideas, suggestions and feedback that supports us in creating an extension of a child's home life by working together. Our online system EyLog provides you with up-to-date information about your child’s days and their learning journey , highlighting WOW moments and special achievements for you to enjoy through the online parental app. We are more than happy to welcome you into our setting so you can see what we have to offer, provide you with all the information you need and to introduce ourselves to you and your little ones and support you on this exciting step in your child’s journey.
