I offer a warm, safe, friendly home from home environment.
I have a large selection of indoor and outdoor equipment designed to encompass all areas of the EYFS.
I use the 'Babysdays' system which gives you access to your child's learning journal, photographs, observations, next steps, daily diary, menus and more.
The Little Forest has been inspected by environmental health and given a food hygiene rating 5 (highest rating).
