Curriculum
At Little Owls Day Nursery in Danbury and Billericay, we believe every child deserves the strongest possible start in life, and our commitment will ensure every child in our care fulfils their full potential. Children’s experiences in the early years have a major impact on their future life chances. A secure, safe and happy childhood is vital, and this provides the foundation for children to make the most of their abilities and talents as they grow up. We know that when choosing to use early years services, parents want to be assured that the setting will keep their children safe and help them to thrive. The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) is the framework that provides that assurance. We are regulated by Ofsted, and our commitment and dedication have also earned us an Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ rating.
Learning beyond the classroom
We believe development happens everywhere, not just at a desk. Our large outdoor play area and soft playroom are perfect for energetic games, messy play and building friendships. Extra clubs like French and Bootcamp add variety to your child’s week, while our popular woodland walks encourage curiosity about the world around them. We keep each day engaging and fun, so your child can look forward to every morning with us.
Why our approach helps children thrive
Our curriculum supports every aspect of your child’s development, from communication and language to emotional and social growth. We work closely with you to set achievable goals and celebrate progress. With a focus on play-based learning at Little Owls Day Nursery, your child can develop independence and problem-solving skills naturally. Our experienced team ensures your child feels safe, supported and inspired every step of the way.
