| Service Description: | Hello my name is Cinzia and I run Musical Minds Tiney Home Nursery. I am a fully registered childminder and I am registered with the childminder agency Tiney, which inspects me every year.
My home nursery has good transport links, access to a lovely local park and nearby playgroups. The home also offers pick-ups from local schools and after-school care. Children can benefit from a spacious garden where they have freedom to express themselves and more opportunity for energetic play. Home cooked meals and snacks are included.
I'm looking forward to welcoming many young minds into my setting to support their early learning and development. My setting is an innovative home from home learning environment where your child will have plenty of opportunities to learn through music, especially the djembe drum and other percussion instruments.
According to the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM Foundation), Music helps the body and the mind work together. Music ignites all areas of child development and skills for school readiness, including intellectual, social-emotional, motor, language, and overall literacy. Exposing children to music during early development helps them learn the sounds and meanings of words. Dancing to music helps children build motor skills while allowing them to practice self-expression.
Additionally, your child will be exposed to Italian and Spanish languages on a daily basis. According to the Department for Education, there are a lot of benefits to learning a second language in the early years. These include better memory skills, improved ability to focus, increased vocabulary, and more. Developing these skills will help your child overcome the challenges they might face in school and allow them to grow into confident learners.
