About Woodentots Montessori Nature Babies Limited

We care deeply about Early Years education and the impact this has on the rest of your child’s life. We’re passionate about the Montessori method (more on that here) and incorporating this into our forest school (and more on that here). We bring the benefits of both disciplines, together with the kindness of nurture and tranquillity of nature, in an exciting setting which has sustainability at heart. From our handmade wooden toys to our nutritious and wholesome vegetarian menu, we don’t just talk the talk – we walk the walk. Our ethos is planted in everything we do, and grows with us, beyond the four walls of our classroom. Because it’s these things that really drive us to work with purpose, providing a natural and healthy environment for your children to grow.
