About ginger bread house

High-Quality Childcare in Smallfield

Our Approach

At The Gingerbread House, we provide a warm and engaging environment where children can explore, learn, and grow at their own pace. Our nursery follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, integrating elements of Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and the Curiosity Approach to foster a love for learning through play, creativity, and hands-on experiences.

We believe in nurturing well-rounded individuals, helping children develop confidence, independence, and social skills that prepare them for school and beyond. To enhance their early years’ journey, we also offer French, Yoga, and Dance lessons, promoting language development, mindfulness, and self-expression.

With a passionate and dedicated team, The Gingerbread House is a place where every child is valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential in a fun and stimulating environment.

When I hear other mothers' stories about different nurseries, I feel so fortunate that we found Gingerbread House! The staff genuinely care, and our daughter, who started there at 9 months, absolutely loves it. We are incredibly grateful to all the staff, especially Tunde,

We recently moved to the area and my son started attending the Gingerbread House Nursery last month. So far, we have been very impressed with the nursery. My son gets very attached and it took him a long time to settle into his last nursery. The staff at the Gingerbread House

My daughter started to attend earlier this year and she has blossomed in so many ways. This is her second nursery due to us moving and the difference in her in unbelievable! She has learnt and done so much in such a few months and I can’t thank all the girls enough. My son now also goes with her now and his speech has progressed so much. I love the fact they give them the chance to make and be with their own friends and then let them later on in the day spend time with eachother as he is in the baby room. My kids love going to nursery and the girls are amazing. They have all had such a positive impact in my children’s lives. Since attending the nursery I’ve seen such improvements and them grow into these 2 outgoing clever children who are learning not just playing. I work full time so they are at the nursery a lot and I can’t thank these girls enough in having such a part in the children they are today

My two daughters are going to Joyful Tots and they both love it. The older one not only tells us what they have done but also her face and mood when we go every morning shows how happy she is. The little one is super happy when we drop her and not a tear. All the activities they run are amazing, with a focus on learning and developing while playing. The staff is super friendly and they look after the children taking really care of them. Management is always available and they are doing a great job. I can only recommend the nursery because they know what they do and my children are really happy the time they are in.

Working with children is a source of pure joy for me. I relish engaging with their unique characters through creative exploration and play. Supporting their early childhood development is incredibly rewarding. Outside of work, I find balance in hobbies like walking, styling hair, and hitting the gym.
