**About Goodstart Kenmore Kersley Road**:
The centre is located in a residential area close to schools and local amenities.
We encourage the children in our care to feel a sense of love, security and inner guidance.
We believe that all children are strong and capable learners and we look to each child to guide us in their learning.
We believe that children's theories and ideas are an important part of our curriculum.
In the early years of a child’s life they are developing their self-esteem, self-worth and their sense of belonging and we believe that our centre, staff and Early Years’ Learning Framework curriculum help the children to further understand themselves.
Our environment encourages the children to self-select experiences that will further their learning and their natural sense of curiosity.
The children are encouraged to create, build and explore their individual needs and become active learners.
