Our focus first and foremost in The Baby Room is to provide a calm and warm emotional environment for babies where they feel loved and cared for.
During this important phase, babies are exploring the world with all their senses and their whole bodies and so the activities and experiences we plan with our babies’ support and encourage children’s strong exploratory impulses.
Our Toddler Room has been carefully designed to provide the best experiences for our children. We are passionate that we get this right and have invested time in developing each area considering every stage of development. We recognise that our toddlers are really starting to find their ‘feet’ and often want to feel independent as well as supported.
Each day our activities are engaging, bringing new challenges, as well as providing familiarity. Often children at this age like to pretend objects are things from their own experiences and represent these through their play.
Between the ages of two and three, toddlers take huge steps in their development. Now much more mobile, they are keen to explore and imitate the world around them and they need space, time and freedom to do this at their own pace, which is why we have provided separately for this important phase in our two Explorer rooms.
Build dens, ask questions and become creative thinkers. Their final stage of nursery is about preparing children for their next big adventure… school.
The same curriculum follows your child through to the end of their Reception Year at school and we have strong links with all of local (and not so local!) schools to make the transition smooth and your child’s experience a positive one. The balance of teaching and play and a rich learning environment means children are equipped with everything they need to build all the characteristics of effective learning to help them through school.
We have a dedicated sensory room that all the children can access. It’s fibre optic lights and music mean that it is a calming environment for all our little one’s to explore.
Here at Dream Big Little One we know how important sleep is for the growth and development of our little one’s busy brains. We have a dedicated sleep room for nap time.
