The Nursery Years

The Nursery Years refer to the early childhood stage, typically from birth to around age five, when children experience rapid growth in physical, emotional, and cognitive development. During this period, children learn essential skills such as language, social interactions, and basic independence through play, exploration, and nurturing environments. It's a critical time for building foundational knowledge and emotional security, which influence future learning and well-being. Caregivers and educators focus on fostering a safe, stimulating space that supports children’s natural curiosity and development during these formative years.
