All children at Monkey Puzzle Day Nurseries are encouraged to learn through play. Our Curriculum covers all the key areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage and is designed to meet the needs of each individual child.
We follow the Government’s Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework which sets the standards for learning, development, and care for children from birth up to 5 years of age. The principles which guide the work of our Early Years Professionals are grouped into four themes: A unique child – every child is a competent leaner from birth who can be resilient, capable, confident and self assured Positive Relationships – children learn to be strong and independent from a base of loving and secure relationships with parents and/or key person Enabling Environments – the environment plays a key role in supporting and extending children’s development and learning Learning and Development – children develop and learn in different ways and at different times; all areas of learning and development are equally important and inter-connected. There are three prime areas of learning in which our Early Years Professionals support children to learn and develop. These are: Plus four specific areas of learning. These are: Each child has their own key person to enable them to feel reassured, safe and cared for within our setting. This person also keeps a detailed Learning Journey of the child’s progress during their time with us. These records are available to be viewed and discussed at any time by parents, who are always encouraged to add details of their child’s experiences from outside the nursery.
