Play. Learn. Grow.
Age groups
Babies
A calm, nurturing start to their early months.
Your baby will be cared for in a warm, homely setting with plenty of cuddles, comfort, and responsive attention. I follow each baby’s individual routine-whether it’s feeding, naps, or playtime-and encourage sensory exploration with age-appropriate toys and gentle activities like music, tummy time, and story sessions.
Toddlers
Exploring the world through play and movement.
As your toddler grows, they’ll enjoy a mix of structured routines and free play that supports their independence and curiosity. I encourage early communication, motor skills, and social play through singing, dancing, messy play, outdoor fun, and simple age-appropriate challenges. Each day is full of learning through fun and discovery.
Preschool
Getting ready for school with confidence and fun.
Children in this age group enjoy a playful approach to learning with a gentle focus on early maths, literacy, and communication. I support their emotional wellbeing, confidence, and curiosity with themed activities, nature walks, role play, and hands-on craft sessions. Our days have a consistent routine to build independence and prepare for nursery or school.
School Age
A safe, welcoming space outside school hours.
For older children, I offer fun, relaxed care before and after school, as well as during holidays. Activities include baking, creative crafts, games, and outdoor play-plus space for homework or quiet time. It’s a friendly, familiar environment where they can wind down, make friends, and feel right at home. I offer pick ups from Meadowbank Primary School.
