At Tracy Hodge Ofsted Childminder, we offer a comprehensive curriculum that is tailored to meet the developmental needs of each child. Our curriculum is based on the latest research in early childhood education and is designed to promote cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. We use a variety of teaching strategies and materials to engage children in active learning and help them develop a love of learning that will last a lifetime.
We so love our outside Winter Walks! Walking in the rain, in the wind, splashing in the puddles- we just love being outside!!
I think we all enjoyed a lovely Christmas break & lots of fun times with our families but its now time to get back to it again! Having fun & learning at the same time!
We have been really lucky to receive an Anti Choking device from Oliver's charity. Sadly Oliver died from being fed a pasta meal at nursery instead of being given pureed food......he was unable to chew his food & sadly died....he was only 9mths old. We feel very blessed to have been given this device to ensure the safety of our little ones.
We had a wonderful Zoolab visit recently - our children absolutely loved seeing and touching all the animals and learning about them! Great fun and a great way to learn! Brilliant concentration from all my children, even my children just over 1 years old!! Looking forward to our next visit in December!
