My Summary
About Me
With over 25 years of experience in the Early Years sector, we are passionate childcare professionals dedicated to supporting children through their most important developmental milestones. Holding degrees in Early Childhood Education, our team brings both knowledge and heartfelt care to every child we work with.
We believe that the first steps in a child’s life lay the foundation for a lifelong love of learning, confidence, and curiosity. Our approach is nurturing, play-based, and developmentally focused—providing a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where children can truly thrive.
We are a bilingual setting, speaking Italian and Spanish as well as English, and we love introducing children to different languages and cultures through songs, stories, and play. Our home-from-home setting also includes a friendly cat, helping children learn to interact gently and respectfully with animals.
Whether it's encouraging language development, fostering independence, or supporting social-emotional growth, we are committed to giving each child the best possible start.
