The Essence of Hygge

What is Hygge?

Hygge is a Danish word that doesn’t have a direct English translation. Think of warm blankets, soft lighting, family gatherings, and the aroma of freshly baked bread—these are all elements of Hygge. At The Early Years Academy, we’ve embraced the principles of Hygge to enrich our nurseries and offer children a home-away-from-home experience.

Nurturing Young Minds

As World Mental Health Day approaches, it’s important to reflect on the significance of well-being from the very beginning of life. At The Early Years Academy, we strive to ensure that children in our care are supported holistically, recognising that well-being is not just about academic readiness but about emotional and social health too.

Exploring Nature

At The Early Years Academy (The EYA), we believe in the power of nature to transform children's learning experiences. That’s why our Forest School Academy is an integral part of our curriculum. Forest School is more than just outdoor play—it’s an immersive, child-led approach that nurtures holistic development.
