Early years education in Walsall
If you want your child to enjoy every second of their early years experience, have fun exploring and discovering new things for themselves, then we are the nursery for you.
Learning through play, the only way, a ‘child centred’ approach
We have extensive experience in child care and early years. Our philosophy and principles are born from the needs and interests of the children in our care. In our 16 years of service, we have observed, evaluated and learnt from our children’s experiences and our parent’s feedback. Every child is unique, so is the learning environment that we create to meet their needs. This is done by seeding and resourcing the environment in response to what we see and hear. We combine elements of ‘ In the moment planning’, ‘Schematic Play’ creating our own unique planning cycle.
Benefits of the way we plan:
- Identify schemes of play “child’s skill or action” and schemas “child’s interest”
- Seed the environment with schematic play in mind to develop your child’s emerging skills.
- Following your child’s unique pattern of interests, likes and dislikes, preferred learning style, talents and abilities.
- Create learning environments incorporating your child’s identified need.
- Promote positivity, the respect for each child’s right to privacy, dignity, choice, independence and fulfilment – raising your child’s confidence and self-esteem.
- Providing an outstanding service recognised by our parents and continually strive for excellence in all areas.
