Early Years
Nurturing Nature

Early Years Nurturing Nature is a venture that encourages parents to spend quality time outdoors with their child. The programme engages early years children and parents in outdoor play through a 10-week programme. Nursery staff are then encouraged, with support, to take on running the programme for themselves.

Simple in design, our experienced team help support relationships through carefully crafted activities. Courses are usually based in a single setting, accommodating up to a dozen sets of parent and child. Our expert staff lead the course and coach nursery staff in tandem. The underlying aim however is to get more early years outdoors.

Staff, parents, and the children go on this journey together – this is a child and parent led programme. Early Years Nurturing Nature has now been proven over three years and hundreds of families. The sessions improve child health and wellbeing, and raise parental engagement with their child and the nursery, nurturing stronger relationships between all.

The course embraces the Early Years Collaborative and EYFS by starting small and growing big! Staff develop the confidence to run the project themselves with support from our LtL course leader, and nursery staff are left equipped to run the programme again themselves. This self-sustaining outcome is key, allowing nurseries to use the tool again in the future.

Often parents from the first course become parent helpers, further building community links and relationships.
