OUR PHILOSOPHY
Everyone is equal, diversity is celebrated, and all are welcomed with a big smile.
As someone who struggled to 'fit in' as a child and became a parent of a child with learning difficulties, I have learnt first hand how tough it can be to feel separate from your peers. This division can sometimes be due to educational needs and disabilities, race, culture, religion or backgrounds and can often appear through lack of knowledge, understanding or awareness.
This is why it is so important to me that our nurseries embrace and support all children and their families, working together to ensure our play spaces are inclusive, and provide amazing learning opportunities and positive outcomes for all. Helping to change the world, one preschooler at a time.
After all, none of us are the same, but all are equal and special in our own right.

OUR EDUCATORS
Every one of our educators is a trained professional with a deep passion for education. Many of our educators have extensive experience in Early Years and have specialised knowledge of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, languages, cultural differences and interests in music, art and theatre.
