ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT
Our building is completely designed for the following purposes: activities, eating, theatrical performances, art activities, recreation as well as games of all kinds. There are separately allocated places for rest and sleep, necessary for the proper development of the children. Big garden, where sports events and educational walks take place, in order the children to observe and take care of animals and plants. We have a welcome area with children's individual wardrobes, separate children's bedroom, 3 playrooms and a large outdoor area.
ABOUT OUR MENU
We offer a healthy and varied nutrition plan, aligned with the needs of the children, including the following meals: Breakfast / Morning Snack / Lunch / Afternoon snack / Tea
We have 4 types of menu - spring/summer/ autumn and winter menu. The daily menu offers fresh juice, fruits and freshly cooked dishes. Every effort will be made to ensure that the dietary needs of all our children are met and those children with allergies and preferences are given a meal as similar as possible to the menu. All food is made fresh within the nursery every day.
My Experience
Hello,
I am a qualified Early Years Educator with a Level 3 Diploma and over 10 years of experience working with children of various ages. I am passionate about early years teaching and have dedicated my career to nurturing young minds in ways that are engaging, meaningful, and tailored to each child’s unique needs.
Throughout my experience, I’ve learned that preparation, planning, and communication are essential to creating a supportive and effective learning environment. I believe that children thrive when they learn through real, hands-on experiences that relate directly to their interests and needs. To ensure that each child feels understood and valued, I make it a priority to build strong relationships with them, taking time to discover their interests and what matters most to them. This approach allows me to design lessons that are relevant, engaging, and purposeful, fostering a love for learning.
I am fortunate to work alongside three dedicated childcare practitioners, and together, we bring a variety of skills and strengths to our nursery. As a team, we are committed to providing a warm, supportive, and stimulating environment where every child can explore, learn, and grow.
Warm regards,
Ilona
