Our Curriculum
At Nurture Nest, our curriculum is rooted in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and designed to give children the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to become independent, curious and enthusiastic learners.
We know that children learn best when they feel safe, happy and emotionally secure. With these foundations in place, we create opportunities for children to learn through play, exploration, positive relationships and real-life experiences.
Our curriculum builds on each child’s interests, strengths and individual stage of development, encouraging them to explore new ideas, develop essential skills and grow in confidence. Through meaningful learning experiences and individualised support, we help every child make progress, develop their potential and build strong foundations for a successful transition to school.
