I live with my partner of 14 years and our 3 young children. I provide a home from home environment where I encourage learning through play. I allow children to explore and play with the toys that interest them as well as setting up activities to suit their age and development level. I provide home-cooked healthy meals and give children the opportunity to get involved with cooking and baking. I have a small world play area and reading corner where we will read, play and sing with daily story and rhyme time. We enjoy getting out into nature all year round and visiting the local parks, ponds and woods. I record the children’s activities and development via an online learning diary which is sent home monthly. I also update parents daily by sending photos and videos.
