MY SETTING


My daily schedule begins with the school run to drop off older children. Afterwards, we engage in activities such as attending playgroups in Arnold, participating in singing sessions at the library and visiting parks like Gedling Country Park or Arnold Park
After lunch and naps, we play at home or in the garden or visit local parks before the afternoon school run
During school holidays, we have the flexibility to embark on day trips and engage in messy play and den building
I prioritise children's happiness and bring energy to stimulate and encourage them. I value outdoor activities, ensuring children receive daily physical exercise and fresh air, which they thrive on. Regular outings which has included train trips to Matlock Bath, visits to Floralands or Stonebridge City Farm or exploring New Walk Museum in Leicester
In grey weather or for special occasions, we enjoy soft play centres like Pirates Play and Brookfields.
I enjoy cooking and involve children in food preparation, encouraging them to try new foods. Together, we've made:
- Pizzas, sausage rolls, cheese straws, cakes, biscuits and chocolate mice
Children are encouraged to participate in both adult-led and child-initiated activities, tailored to their age and developmental stage. Parents can monitor their child's progress through the 'Babydays' online system.
