Our Approach...
What Influences our Approach?
At Cressington Manor, we place children at the heart of everything we do. Our passion and commitment to working with children and families stems from our belief that early childhood is one of the most significant phases of life.
​
The changes that occur in the first five years of a child's life are remarkable. Research indicates that the initial three years are crucial for brain development. By drawing on the insights of early childhood theorists, we gain a deeper understanding of the cognitive, emotional, physical, social, and educational growth that unfolds from birth to early adulthood. Join us in nurturing these essential early years!
At Cressington Manor, we've crafted a unique curriculum inspired by renowned childcare theories and educational practices. We focus on five key principles that define our nursery: high-quality interactions, a nurturing environment, hands-on play-based learning, structured routines, and personalised attention to each child’s needs and development.
​
Drawing from the best elements of Froebel, Montessori, Steiner/Waldorf, and Reggio Emilia, we offer a unique approach that provides enriching and engaging learning experiences, ensuring every child thrives in our care.
