My 'ethos' is to encourage children, to learn through the medium of play, and to provide a stimulating and caring environment, in which they can explore and learn about their world.

 

All activities that I provide, will be linked to the Early Years Foundation Stages (EYFS) framework, to ensure that your child is given the best possible start in life, and to ensure that they are given every opportunity to achieve their full potential in this important development stage.

 

Each activity will have a clear 'Characteristic of Effective Learning' (CoEL) attached to it, which will be recorded as part of their daily diary, which the parent can view via their child's account at the end of each day.

 

Additionally, I provide the opportunity for the parent to highlight and add their own 'Next Steps', which will form part of the child's 'Individual Learning plan', as well as the option to add their own 'Observations' to those already recorded by myself.

 

'Nap' times for those children that require them, will be agreed in advance with the parent, along with the child's daily routine as not to interfere or conflict with their home life.
