25 Years Experienced Educator Refreshing Practice
Sep 03, 2019
I really love being able to share with you the work and it's impact on my members. This week i'm featuring in my spotlight the highly dedicated and reflective Ann.
'I have been working in childcare for almost 25 years and my setting was in need of a complete overhaul! I have always been busy but felt the need for a change.
I saw Hygge advertised and looked into it I loved it from the start. The parents of the children that I care for love the transformation and the resources.
When you work in a small setting it is very easy to become complacent as we have minimal help, it is up to the individual to keep up with continuous improvement.
This is where I found KSEY invaluable. I started with a couple of short courses and then started the HYGGE in the early years.
I was hooked from the start and began to transform my setting.
I have replaced most of my plastic toys with natural resources but I still keep some of them because the children love playing with them such as small world.
I have changed to more neutral colours and different textured fabrics that the children can feel, we have magical fairy lights in different spaces to create a magical feel to the room.
I have found many items of interest in charity shops, boot sales and sale sites and paid only a little for them. Some of my parents have also donated items.
We are continually adding our finds to engage the children.
The changing seasons are a great resource for our setting to use, over the last few weeks we have been out picking blackberries and looking at toadstools in our field. We have used blackberries for cooking painting and potion making.
Now is my favourite time for harvesting so it is great to explore the wonderful produce and colours that are available mostly free or for little cost. parents like to donate surplus vegetables for us to use.
I still have work to do outside but it is an ongoing project, the ideas I have learned from Kimberly are an inspiration!'"
