About Me

Based in south Littleton I offer a nurturing environment with a child led approach to learning and exploration within the safety of my home. Activities are based around books, seasons and festivities, adapted for each child to get the most enjoyment out of the theme and activity, through crafts, puppet shows, story bags, circle time and music and movement.
