My Summary
About Me
We are a team of four, one childminder and three Early Years teachers, registered with Ofsted, who offer a stimulating little nursery-like setting for your child to learn through play in a loving home environment.
Our setting benefits from three well resourced rooms and a large garden offering varied activities based on the guidelines of the Early Years Foundation stage and early learning goals.
Outside 200 m2
Inside 90+60+50 m2
We pride ourselves on delivering a high level of early years childcare and education to all our children, which will be key in the development of knowledge, and future attitudes to learning. Through showing praise, recognition, respect and reward we encourage each child to flourish and develop as a happy confident person. By making a child feel safe and secure, loved and cared for we create the right atmosphere for a child to develop positive dispositions to all aspects of life. Our aim is that children develop a real passion for learning and exploring and develop into active learner and independent thinkers. We believe each child has the right to reach for their dreams without fears and inhibitions and to strongly believe in themselves to reach far and beyond while being happy and content.
In addition, children will be learning and familiar with a second language without the pressure of a classroom environment as all the adults could be talking in Spanish and English, that means the kids hear the same word in both languages.
We use fresh products which enable us to avoid the use of salt, pepper, colouring, artificial flavours and additives.

Little explorers is an excellent Childminder’s. The team are professional and reassuring. They maintain good communication about your child needs and care for them like they are family. My son loves going to nursery and always speaks highly of the teachers. They have helped him reach developmental goals I did not think he could and prepared him for pre school. He always enjoys the active day and many activities.
Highly recommended.

My twin boys absolutely adore their nursery. It’s a wonderfully warm and welcoming environment, and over the past six months, we’ve seen them grow into confident and joyful little adventurers. They come home beaming with happiness each day and especially love the exciting trips and visits to different playgrounds. I couldn’t recommend this nursery more—it’s been a fantastic part of their early years!
