About

Our Commitment to Early Education

At our nursery, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, ensuring a comprehensive approach to your child's development. We strive to create a nurturing environment where children feel happy, safe, and eager to learn. Each child's progress is observed and assessed using Tapestry, an educational platform that provides parents with online access to their child's development journey. We value strong partnerships with parents, maintaining close communication to share all essential information and updates about their child. Together, we aim to provide the best start in life, fostering growth, learning, and well-being every step of the way.
