We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework while going further to create a rich, play-based learning experience. Babies, toddlers and preschoolers benefit from a curriculum that nurtures communication, physical, emotional, social and creative development, both indoors and outdoors. Each child has a dedicated Key Person who supports their progress and records their achievements.

We prioritise food and nutrition to support children’s growth and development. Our award-winning, mostly organic meals and snacks are freshly prepared on site, offering variety in colour, texture and taste to broaden children’s palates. With balanced breakfasts, hot lunches and teatime meals, fresh fruit and regular water breaks, we help children stay healthy, hydrated and happy while enjoying every mealtime experience.

Every child feels safe, secure and valued, with a dedicated Key Person supporting their wellbeing, learning and development. From babies to preschoolers, our caring staff provide attentive, age-appropriate care, helping children build confidence, independence and social skills. Through plenty of praise, conversation and recognition, children thrive in a nurturing environment.

At Monkey Puzzle Cheshunt, children enjoy a large, secure, newly refurbished garden with play areas, a mud kitchen and safe surfaces for all ages. Daily outdoor play, combined with community trips and visits from local services, helps children explore, learn and develop confidence in the world around them.
