Description
; Hi, my name is Laura Dibble, I am an OFSTED outstanding registered childminder living in Mells, Frome.; ; I use a blended curriculum, taking (what I believe to be) the best parts of Reggio Emilia, Froebel, the curiosity approach, and Forest school. We are a ‘Hygge in the Early Years’ accredited setting. ; ; As a ‘Hygge in the Early Years’ setting I aim to provide a cosy, calm, home from home setting. I aim to, first and foremost, support children’s social and emotional development because a child cannot learn effectively if they are stressed.; ; I have open-ended toys and equipment and the children are given ample time to explore them. I don’t interrupt children at work (playing) and our routine is set up to reflect this. Learning happens organically as I play with the children, scaffolding their play, offering additional elements, sharing in their wonder, and extending their vocabulary. I believe in the saying ‘Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn’ Benjamin Franklin.
