About Me

I aim to provide a friendly, nurturing, safe and warm home from home environment that provides a range of active educational and engaging activities for all children. I aim to provide experiences that will develop skills in understanding, thinking, investigation, problem-solving and imagination to encourage a child’s curiosity, inquiry, and creativity. I am passionate about outdoor play after completing my nature pedagogy course. I will access outdoors most days exploring the local community and nature through the woods and nature reserve close by. This allows children to take part in risky play and learn about nature and real-life skills. I will offer free flow opportunities for children to make their own decisions about their play and to try new experiences. I have appropriate toys, games, and experiences for children of all ages. I will also offer planned experiences such a story and song time, music, and messy play. Children in my care will be treated as individuals and will be given age and stage appropriate experiences to help them meet their milestones. All children will be encouraged and supported to respect, be kind and caring towards each other.
