Notes

I live within easy (2 minutes) access to M2 motorway, also close to Maidstone bus route.

Within walking distance to local play areas and Tunbury school and Preschool. Walking distance to Bluebell Hill  & Smilers preschools.

Home from home, but with the twist of a Learning Environment. 

A welcoming place, starting with a friendly smile.

The sharing room in our house is to welcome you inside, looking out onto the great size lawned area.

Beyond that is the fenced off area, where the family pets spend the day.

This can be included in our day, under strict supervision.

Our house has 3 reception areas, 2 being for family only. Kitchen area for messy play activities and on the same level toilet facilities.

Special Needs Support

I work along the developmental stage of your child initially with the aim of challenging and moving onto next step of development where appropriate. 

Patience,  positively to encourage nurturing onto next steps where, if & when possible. 
I would keep in frequent contact with parents / carers on a regular basis, with regards to curriculum achievements and possible extension to current activities. All  alongside working within a partnership of parent / carers, childcare providers and professionals.
