How your child will learn with us

We are a team of qualified and experienced professionals who put the children’s wellbeing and education at the centre of their work.

We focus on each child as an individual, planning learning experiences and play sessions around each child’s needs and interests.

Rather than a more vertical approach, the curriculum takes a holistic view of learning, where children continue to build on what they learn by moving on to lessons based on writing and reading. The aim is to provide a broader education that includes language learning, science, dance, drama, messy play and many other interesting topics that children find so fascinating.

Never a dull moment!

Daily Routine

We believe that children should be with us all day to benefit most from the delivery of the curriculum.

After breakfast, children are engaged in set activities designed to stimulate imagination and learning. Shortly after a mid-morning snack, they are taken out for a walk with a stop at a local park or garden, weather permitting and depending on their age.

Most children have one main sleep after lunch, which starts at 11am (young babies will sleep more frequently and as many times as is required). Once awake, the children are offered a mid-afternoon snack, followed by more set activities, other learning opportunities and another brief outing.

The day starts drawing to a close with a light dinner at 4pm, after which the children are monitored while they play freely and await collection.

Team

We believe that caring for and educating children is a vocation rather than a job, so we have invested considerable time and attention recruiting a team of highly experienced and qualified professionals who have an empathetic and caring approach to their work.

Mostly qualified to Bachelors’ or Masters’ degree level or in possession of another childcare qualification, the staff share the nursery’s passion for excellence and outstanding practice. Our mission is to create a stimulating and nurturing learning environment where children thrive in a safe and happy setting.

The team includes native foreign-language teachers, as well as drama, music and yoga instructors, who conduct regular sessions with toddler and preschool children, to enhance their understanding of the role of language and the arts in a multi-cultural environment.
