About our nursery

A second home where every child belongs.

We opened our first room with eleven children and one very loud tambourine. Everything since has been built on the same idea: that little people learn fastest when they feel safe, seen and thoroughly at home.

Our story

We began in a converted corner shop with a hand-painted sign and a garden the size of a rug. Parents brought books, a neighbour built the reading nook, and the children decided where the animals lived. Twelve years later the rooms are bigger and the tambourine is still here.

Everything we do rests on three habits: watch closely, follow the child, and tell the family what we saw. That is why our rooms are quieter than you expect and busier than they look.

"They noticed our son was ready to read three weeks before we did, and they had a plan for it that afternoon."

Quiche Hollandaise

"Our daughter went in clinging to my leg in September. By November she was showing new children where the paint aprons live."
