Curiosity Approach accredited

We are a Curiosity Approach accredited nursery, meaning our practitioners draw on a range of reputed early years theorists such as Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and Hygge in the Early Years to give children opportunities to shape their own learning. We feel strongly that children’s involvement in their play leads to high levels of well-being, so our routine lets children choose between indoor and outdoor play.

 

Our approach allows your child to develop their skills, interests and passions by engaging in a vast range of activities which inspire and enthuse them. Our knowledgeable and experienced educators ensure every child has a meaningful learning experience, helping your child develop and grow through play and social interaction. They observe each child’s learning journey and provide activities based around their interests, whilst taking account of children’s individual needs. 

Our Commitment to Your Child

We are passionate about delivering high-quality childcare in a safe, secure, and welcoming environment. Our team works closely with parents and carers to ensure every child feels valued and supported. Every aspect of our care is designed to promote children's well-being and development, from individual learning journeys to healthy meals. We consistently review our practices to maintain the highest standards, offering families peace of mind and a home-from-home experience.

OFSTED excerpt:

"Children make good progress in their learning. They benefit from a well-planned curriculum that builds upon what they already know and can do…. Staff promote children's investigation skills by providing them with a range of natural and interesting resources. They provide opportunities for children to learn about the natural world, including planting and growing"

Parent thoughts (1)

My child has been with Kids Capers for the last year and a half. She started in sunshine room and is now in rainbow room and she absolutely loves it. She's made some great friendships with other children and I've seen her development go from strength to strength. The staff are always so welcoming and have been so supportive and helpful since she started. We love going to the stay and play days together as she likes to show me around and it's great to meet other parents and chat to the staff. We definitely made the best decision sending our daughter to Kids Capers (Vicky P)

Parent thoughts (2)

My child has been a part of Kids Capers since she was about 10 months old… she has high special needs…and I can't speak highly enough of the care, support, and dedication the team has shown her throughout her time there. From the very beginning, the staff have gone above and beyond to understand her individual needs and to make sure she feels safe, happy, and included. Their patience, compassion, and genuine love for what they do have made such a difference-not only in her development, but also in giving us support and peace of mind as parents (Stine R)
