Our Vision

17843318930768484.jpg

We are inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach to learning, an approach which highlights, respects and nurtures the magic of children- as they truly are - different, perfect and extraordinary

We value our children as extraordinary- we protect the magic of the child by not dumbing things down, nor by  trying to mould their unique minds to our adult confined standards.

We value the 100 languages of the child …

 

We take our inspiration from the beautiful teaching style of the Reggio Emilia region of Italy- which places strong emphasis on the environment as the second teacher- this is why you will find our nursery filled with beautiful engaging invitations to play.

 

We do things differently, our nursery is there to support you and your family. We chose not to have ‘stiff’ uniforms- we view uniforms as an unnecessary barrier in the child’s learning journey. We chose to use first names with our families to promote positive relationships, we choose to be relaxed and approachable in how we communicate and how we present ourselves- an approach which we think is vital in supporting young children and their families in their learning journey. 

Choose BEAUTIFUL quality childcare,

NATURAL outdoor learning and a home from home experience for your family.

Our Background

Our background is in education and in the strong belief that everyone can achieve. The Yellow Door Nursery is a unique nursery built and designed around the empowering Reggio Emilia approach. Our approach is refreshingly different from other nurseries, we listen to the 100 languages of the child whether,  a child is working with clay, discovering woodworking tools, taking pleasure in paint, exploring various printing techniques or expanding their ways of storytelling. 

 

​

In Reggio there is no predetermined curriculum, instead the educational experience is trusted to the image of the child- rich in potential, strong, powerful and competent.  Here at the Yellow Door Nursery Tameside we encourage children to develop their own theories and work with their educators to explore and collaborate bringing together their ideas, theories and finding. Our approach is powerful and enabling.

​

​

To create this powerful and enabling approach  Importance is placed on relationships, the surrounding environment and ‘time’- that is why at our nursery the children develop meaningful, purposeful and caring relationships with their key worker and all the staff that they work with.  

 


We never step away from our belief that a child’s learning should be child centred and child driven- this is what we pride ourselves in...our nursery belongs to our children…
