Our Programmes

At our nursery, we provide a warm, nurturing environment where children are supported to learn through play. Our programmes follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework and are tailored to each developmental stage. We promote hands-on, child-led exploration with a strong focus on emotional well-being, communication, and confidence.

Baby Room (0–2 years)

In our Baby Room, the focus is on building secure relationships, establishing routines, and encouraging early communication. Babies explore the world through sensory play, music, and interaction with caring practitioners. We support every baby’s individual routine, including sleep, feeding, and nappy changes, ensuring a calm and loving atmosphere.

 Toddler Room (2–3 years)

Our Toddlers thrive in an environment that promotes independence, social interaction, and active discovery. Children take part in circle time, messy play, outdoor activities, and are introduced to early communication, problem-solving, and role play. We encourage curiosity and creativity while supporting speech and language development.

 Preschool Room (3–5 years)

In Preschool, we help children become confident learners as they prepare for their transition to school. Activities include early phonics, mark-making, simple maths, and imaginative play. We also explore cultural celebrations and promote self-help skills like dressing, tidying up, and managing emotions. Our goal is to nurture confident, kind, and school-ready children.
