Teaching and learning is based on the 'Reggio Emilia' approach, where children are given the opportunity to develop in stimulating environment, rich with learning opportunities. Heathfield House Day Nursery staff are particularly passionate about children enjoying the outdoors and have a stunning garden area, where children can truly thrive, and develop socially, emotionally and physically.
