Early Edu Nest is in it's early stages...

If you are looking for Early Years resources, activities or information then this is the place for you.
I have been teaching for 20 years, specialising for the last 8 years in Early Years. I am also a SENDCO in a primary school and advocate for inclusive education and adaptive teaching.
As a mum of two neuruodiverse girls, I have tried and tested a number of strategies to support their formative years and hope I can pass some of that knowledge on.

As well as a resources base for parents, childminders, childcare providers and teachers, I will be writing a blog about all things Early Years and sharing videos and tips along the way.

Please join me in this exciting journey!
