Early Years Childcare Apprenticeship

Little Learners Nursery & Pre School- St Nicholas Avenue

Little Learners  is run by LifeLine Projects, a charity supporting young people and adults in East London. LifeLine began in 2000, when a group of volunteers, meeting in their local coffee shop to discuss community issues, realised that they could be part of the solution. Initially supporting isolated and marginalised women, LifeLine has since grown into a large community-based social enterprise. They want every child that leaves Little Learners to be well-prepared and ready for school, determined to continue learning, and to have a positive effect on their friends and their community in the future. Cultivating a culture of learning through play is very important to them. They build children’s confidence and whet their appetite to learn with a range of fun, age-appropriate, daily activities which are based around the children’s interests and next steps. Each of their nurseries works to the Early Years framework, offering a safe and stimulating environment from which every child leaves enjoying learning, ready for school, and able to make and be a good friend to others.
