Our Mission Statement at

Young Haymakers

​

“In every child, there is a seed of wonder — we simply water it with love, patience, and play.”

​

​At Young Haymakers, we believe childhood is a time of wonder, growth, and joyful discovery. Our mission is to provide a secure, happy, and inspiring environment where every child can thrive — emotionally, socially, and intellectually.
We are committed to:
•     Creating a space where children play and learn in harmony with their peers
•     Supporting the development of independence and sociability beyond the home
•     Preparing each child to move forward to school with confidence and happiness

•     Encouraging a love for learning and a sense of belonging in nursery life
•     Nurturing social awareness and empathy, helping children understand the needs and feelings of others
•     Offering gentle guidance and consistent expectations, fostering trust and continuity

We achieve this by nurturing each child’s self-esteem, independence, and natural curiosity — encouraging them to explore the world with open hearts and enquiring minds.

Our approach blends the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum with elements of Montessori, the Curiosity Approach, and Reggio Emilia philosophy. We observe children closely to understand their interests and needs, using these insights to shape meaningful, child-led learning experiences.
