OFSTED AWARDS:
'GOOD'
Jumping Jellybeans Pre-school was founded in 2004 by Debbie Southern with two purposes in mind:-
-
to provide a space where children feel happy, safe and confident to explore and express their feelings,
-
to present an exciting environment for children to embrace their curiosities and follow their fascinations to make new discoveries.
Debbie has been working within Early Years and Child Care for 39 years, and has gained a wide variety of child related qualifications and extensive experience and skills during her journey. The staff team is small and family orientated and are truly passionate to help children become independent people with an excitement for learning.
In 2026 gained the award of a Hygge Accredited Setting.
OUR PEDAGOGY
At Jellybeans we believe in the core values of the Danish attitude to life that focuses on living in the moment and feeling the joy there is in everyday routines and activities. Hygge is a philosophy and describes a Scandinavian style way of life which is really well suited for early years settings, because of its core philosophy that a cosy, nurturing, warm environment promotes happiness, well-being and calm. It teaches the value of enjoying the beauty in simple pleasures and appreciating daily life. Through this method, early years educators can help young children slow down, appreciate and be aware of their surroundings, and encourage a calmer and more mindful way of being that is very beneficial in a teaching and learning environment.
