Busy Bodies Childcare Curriculum

At Busy Bodies, children’s happiness and wellbeing are at the heart of everything we do. We believe that joy and learning go hand in hand, so our curriculum is designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and prepare children for the future.

Every day, children enjoy a mix of structured learning and child-led play, both indoors and outdoors. This balance ensures they grow at their own pace while developing the skills they need for school and beyond.

A Bespoke Approach

We follow a bespoke curriculum that combines the best of early years practice with our unique setting and philosophy. Our curriculum is shaped around five key principles:

Active, Immersive Learning
Children learn through doing, from nature walks to creative play, every activity is designed to engage their imagination and senses.

Healthy Development from the Start

Fresh meals, active movement, and calm routines support both physical and emotional wellbeing.

Individual Attention
With higher staffing levels, we form real connections with each child, tailoring activities to their interests and needs.

Inclusion and Celebration
We celebrate different cultures, traditions, and abilities, teaching children the value of kindness and respect.

School Readiness
From early literacy and numeracy to social skills, our curriculum prepares children for a confident transition to primary school.

Learning Through Play

Children learn best when they are engaged and having fun. At Busy Bodies, play is carefully planned to support:

Early communication and language skills through songs, stories, and conversations.

Physical development with indoor and outdoor play spaces.

Problem-solving and creativity through open-ended activities.

Social skills and friendships by working, sharing, and exploring together.
