My Summary
About Me
Hello
Tiny Acorns is a play-based Forest school
We believe that children flourish best:
- through a secure, nurturing foundation of care and attention that meets their individual needs.
- where they develop as social beings, who can build and maintain friendships, wait, share, take turns and show respect.
- where enjoyment and happiness are recognised as holding intrinsic value.
- where they can engage their hands, heart and head in a variety of stimulating and inspiring play-based activities.
- and where they are supported by a diverse staff team of different talents and skills who can provide high quality interactions to help unlock children’s potential.
We have space available! And would like to invite you to meet us.
Many thanks,
Kelly

My 16 month old daughter has been going to Kelly twice a week for the past 4 months and she absolutely loves it!
I was extremely nervous about returning to work and just the thought of leaving my little one with a stranger filled me with absolute dread, but Kelly put my mind completely at ease and made the transition as smooth as possible for both of us.
Kelly's house really is like a home from home. It isn't an over sterile, clinical environment like some of the child minders I went to visit. It is a nice cosy family home where the children are allowed to be creative, make a mess, have fun and just be children.
Kelly (and her assistant Becky) are always taking my daughter and the other children out or doing some form of activity with them so I know she is being stimulated and kept occupied with all of her adventures. She seems to really enjoy her time with Kelly and I can go to work worry (and guilt) free.

My three year old has been going to Kelly for two mornings a week for a while now. He has special needs and has trouble bonding with other adults. Kelly just 'got' him straight away, and understood the best way to manage him. He loves going to her, and always has a lovely time. Kelly has been very supportive of him and me, and had lots of advice, often knowing the right direction when things weren't going my way. She provides a safe, and happy environment.

My daughter has been going to Kelly since she was 3 months old, and I can leave her knowing 100% that she is in safe and very capable hands. Kelly is very knowledgeable and I can always go to her if I'm not sure of something or need advice. Kelly makes a real home from home experience which I love, and my daughter has been able to settle in perfectly.
Now 9 months old, my daughter is still very happy and I would definitely recommend Kelly if you need flexible and friendly childcare.
Thank you Kelly !! :))
