More about Hannah...

Picture
​An enthusiastic Early Years Teacher/Trainer...and parent!
'I'm passionate about showing that play IS learning and demonstrating the key links between enabling effective growth and development opportunities for young children through play and their subsequent achievement of their potential, later happiness, sense of security, love of life and engagement with education.
I also want to give practical, research- based ideas for reflection within practice, provision and pedagogy, which relate to recent child development, education and scientific research, in an effort to help all children thrive within their settings and schools.
I aim to give simple explanations of key complex ideas which can enable practitioners to develop their triple loop thinking and underpin their excellent practice.
Moreover, I want to help enable practitioners in their developing early years practice - with knowledge, ideas and reflection, through cost-effective CPD training opportunities, centred around the uniquely developing child.
​

 I want to empower parents and practitioners with knowledge about HOW young children learn and develop effectively through being engaged in high quality play and fun so that unique children can explore, be active, hypothesise, develop ideas, be creative and develop their sense of self and life-long love of learning, alongside the support, care and enthusiasm of empowered practitioners and parents.
Ultimately, learning (through play) can be, (and is supported by extensive research to show this), cheap, fun, exciting and hugely impactful for all aspects of a child's life now and for their future achievements and overall life skills and satisfaction.
