SAFETY FIRST We're taking extra measures to ensure your children are safe in our setting
Qualifications and Accreditations
Working towards the curiosity approach accreditation.
The setting follows the curiosity approach pedagogy as I am working towards the “curiosity approach” accreditation.
The curiosity approach aims to allow children to explore their creative freedom by igniting their natural curiosity and imagination. I believe that children learn through daily experiences and my setting has been setup using real, authentic and natural resources reducing the use of plastic toys and focusing on implementing eco sustainable resources. All the resources have been carefully collected and selected considering the different play schemas of the children and to support and encourage the imaginative play.
Loose parts play activities are heavily incorporated within the setting. The use of open-ended resources helps to encourage problem solving skills in solitary and group focused activities. I truly believe that this allows children to express their imagination, awe and wonder which aids to develop the child’s skills.
My daily practice as a childminder draws inspiration from the Danish “Hygge” method as this contributes to creating a slow and enjoyable moment within a warm and calm atmosphere where children can thrive, feel safe and secure.
With my Italian background, I love inspiring my activities around the Montessori pedagogy and the Reggio Emilia pedagogy.
