About Us
Big Explorers
My name is Keira (middle) and I opened my childcare business in January 2020 with the aim of encouraging children’s love of outdoors and promoting learning through contentment, mindfulness and most importantly play! I have a level 5 in Children, Young People and Families, Level 3 Paediatric First Aid And Level 2 Safeguarding. My real passion is incorporating the Danish term Hygge into our setting through outdoor exploration and experiences.
I work with two amazing assistants Ellie (far right) and Sharmilla (second from the left) who have the greatest bond with the children! Ellie is currently completing her level 3 apprenticeship with me and both assistants hold their level 3 paediatric first aid qualifications.
Our Ethos
Firstly, the most important aspect of our setting for us is that we follow a Hygge ethos which focuses on providing a calming, comfortable environment that becomes a second home for the child. We are a Hygge in the Early Years accredited setting and will be expanded this in the near future. We have a huge focus on outdoor play and aim to reach our 1000 hours outdoors every year. We are all trained in baby wearing to support attachments in our under 1 year olds.
