Early Years (6 - 12 Months Old)

Between 6 and 12 months, babies show rapid development, including becoming more mobile (crawling, standing), developing hand-eye coordination (grasping, feeding themselves), understanding more language (recognizing words like "bye-bye"), showing distinct personalities, and experiencing separation anxiety.

First words (1 - 2 Years Old)

Children aged 1-2 years are rapidly developing physically, cognitively, and emotionally, moving from walking and exploring to beginning to run, use simple words, understand commands, and engage in basic pretend play, all while growing in independence and testing boundaries. They learn through exploring their environment through talk, and play.

Toddler Years (2 - 3 Years Old)

Children aged 2-3 are rapidly developing independence, language, and social skills, engaging in pretend play, running, jumping, and climbing, while also experiencing strong emotions and learning to manage them. They become more social, enjoy helping with household tasks, and begin to understand concepts like taking turns and others' feelings.

Starting school (4 - 5 Years Old)

Children aged 4-5 years are developing complex language skills, telling longer stories, and using 4+ word sentences, while also engaging in elaborate imaginative and cooperative play. Physically, they are improving gross motor skills like running, hopping, and climbing, and fine motor skills for dressing and drawing, and are showing increased independence and social awareness.

What parents say about Hazey Dayz?

Fantastic. My little boy adores Sarah and Rich. He's been treated as part of their family while he's been with them since he was 9 months old. I couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after him. Caring, reliable, accommodating and above all they're really lovely people. Thank you xxxx

Sarah has looked after my son since he was 8 months old. My son has always been very happy and never wants to come home! She is a superb childminder who offers a variety of activities and supports every childs development. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone! I feel very lucky to have found Sarah and Rich and I know my son feels the same!

My son started Hazey Dayz when he was 12 months old. Since then he has learned so much and Sarah has really helped me as a parent. Her knowledge is incredible and having someone to talk to has been really helpful. She has become part of our family and I never want my little boy to leave!

Both my children attended Hazey Dayz and to be honest I never wanted them to leave! Sarah was outstanding in everything she did for my children. She took on Mum role whilst I was at work and treated them like her own children. She wants the best for all the children she cares for and I couldn't have wished for a better start for my children. If they didn't have to go to school, they would still be with her now!
