individual child to make a positive contribution to
the nursery
The 4 areas of EYFS are the principles of what
we do in the nursery.
We work with all children to help them become
resilient, capable, confident and self assured. We
provide loving and secure relationships with the
children and parents.
The environment we provide is designed to support and
extend all children's development through play. We
understand that all areas of learning and development
are equally important and interconnected.
The 4 areas are titled
A unique child, Positive relationships, Enabling
environments and Learning and development.
