In Collaboration with Bangers and Smash
At Young and Smart Day Nursery, we believe that Communication and Language development is foundational to a child’s overall growth. Through engaging storytelling, role-play, and interactive conversations, we nurture a rich vocabulary and effective communication skills in our children. Our caring staff create a language-rich environment where children feel confident to express themselves and explore new words. We are committed to fostering the ability to listen, speak, and understand, ensuring each child is prepared for future learning experiences.

Communication & Language Development:


At Young and Smart Day Nursery, we offer a unique curriculum that creates an engaging environment for fostering language development. Our experienced teachers from Jumping Beans, all fully DBS checked, use innovative tools such as puppets, bean bags, props, and worksheets to make the learning journey enjoyable and effective. Through a mix of fun games, parachute play, and songs, we bring Mandarin to life, ensuring that every lesson is a dynamic and enriching experience for your child. Join us in nurturing bright minds and cultivating a love for languages.

Physical Development:


Physical Development at Young and Smart Day Nursery is about more than just physical activity; it’s about building healthy habits for life. Our well-designed play activities, both indoors and outdoors, enhance children’s gross and fine motor skills, strength, and coordination. From fun games to arts and crafts, we provide a variety of experiences that help children develop hand-eye coordination and physical confidence. We are dedicated to supporting our children in achieving physical milestones, promoting an active and healthy lifestyle.

Personal, Social & Emotional Development:


At our children’s nursery, Personal, Social, and Emotional Development (PSED) is at the heart of our approach. We create a warm, supportive environment where children build strong relationships, learn to manage their emotions, and develop a positive sense of self. Our team guides children in setting simple goals, building confidence and navigating social interactions. We believe that fostering emotional resilience and social skills is crucial for their success in school and life, helping them become well-rounded, confident individuals.

At Young and Smart Day Nursery, our partnership with ‘Bangers and Smash‘ ensures that music becomes an integral part of your child’s developmental journey, unlocking the potential for self-expression, creativity, and social interaction.
