We are a unique early years setting providing plenty of opportunities for children to play socially, mixing with children of various ages.  

Bright Beginnings Montessori Childcare believe in following the child's interests and developing practical life skills which enable self esteem, independence and concentration.   

Our children thrive and learn through play in a supportive setting, learning to care for themselves, each other and their environment.  

Outdoor play is encouraged, rain or shine. Bright Beginnings Montessori Childcare have a garden with plenty of room for children to run and stretch their legs as well as outdoor toys and games for all ages.

Jacqui and Laura both have two children of their own.  Before childminding they both worked in schools and nurseries.  

Who better to take care of your children than other mothers with years of experience and who are early years trained?

The benefits of learning poetry (extract taken from above website):

• Learning poems together is an enjoyable way of experiencing the play

of language.

• Reciting poetry creates a close bond between the adult and the child.

• Saying poems out loud emphasises the sounds and rhythms of language

or the syllables contained in each word, a vital part of learning to read.

• When reciting a poem with actions, children discover and use new

words in an almost effortless way. It is as if the rhythm and the structure

of the verse give context to these unfamiliar phrases.

• Poetry develops the skill of prediction, where the rhyming structure of the

poems allows children to guess what word might come next.

• As children recite poetry, the neurons in their brain light up. By repeating

and learning new poems regularly, they strengthen their ability for

memorising in this way.

• The more poems children hear and recite, the more capable they

become of recognising and memorising patterns, a vital part of early

maths.

• Learning poetry together is FUN
