Our Services

At Inspire To Nurture, our services are designed to support every aspect of early years practice — from inspiring creativity in the classroom to developing reflective leadership and strengthening quality across your setting.

All support is fully adaptable, available in person or online, and shaped around your setting’s unique ethos and goals.

Training & Professional Development

Our training sessions are interactive, thought-provoking, and rooted in everyday early years practice. We aim to make learning meaningful, achievable, and directly applicable to your setting.

Each session encourages reflection, builds confidence, and strengthens team cohesion — ensuring professional development feels inspiring rather than overwhelming.

Our goal is to leave your team feeling empowered, inspired, and ready to make meaningful change in their daily practice.

Training Topics

Training can be delivered as half-day workshops, full-day sessions, or ongoing programmes, and each can be tailored to your setting’s individual needs and goals.

Curiosity in Action: Nurturing creativity, confidence, and wonder through play and exploration.
Observation and Planning with Purpose: Moving beyond checklists to truly see, understand, and respond to children’s learning.
Reflective Supervision and Team Development: Building emotionally intelligent teams that communicate and collaborate effectively.
Pedagogy and Practice within the Curriculum: Connecting national frameworks with real-life, child-led experiences.
Child-Led Environments that Inspire Learning: Designing spaces that spark curiosity, independence, and engagement.

Quality Improvement & Consultancy

We provide hands-on consultancy support to help leaders and practitioners strengthen quality, ethos, and practice across early years and childcare settings.

Whether you’re preparing for inspection, expanding provision, or embedding a shared vision, our consultancy approach focuses on sustainable, meaningful improvement rather than quick fixes.

Consultancy Support

We don’t just offer advice — we walk alongside you, providing practical support and reflection to help you achieve lasting impact.

Setting and Environment Audits: Reviewing physical spaces and routines to ensure they inspire curiosity and creativity.
Curriculum and Pedagogy Reviews: Analysing current approaches to ensure alignment with best practice and child-centred principles.
Quality Improvement and Action Planning: Developing clear, achievable steps to move your setting forward with confidence.
Mentoring for Leaders and Room Leads: Empowering leadership that inspires, supports, and nurtures teams.

Reflective Mentoring & Professional Growth

Our Reflective Mentoring programme is designed to help early years professionals and leaders build confidence, resilience, and clarity in their practice.

Through reflective dialogue, professional discussion, and personalised guidance, we create space for deep thinking and self-awareness — encouraging educators to find solutions that truly fit their children and their context.

Mentoring Focus Areas

Mentoring can be offered one-to-one or in small groups, with flexible sessions tailored to support ongoing professional development and well-being.

Building Reflective and Empowered Teams: Strengthening trust, collaboration, and shared purpose.
Understanding and Responding to Children: Placing the child’s perspective at the centre of every decision.
Embedding Well-Being and Emotional Literacy: Creating emotionally safe, nurturing environments for both children and staff.
Developing Leadership that Inspires: Encouraging supportive leadership that motivates rather than manages.

Inspire To Nurture Resources

We believe that reflection and learning should continue long after training ends.

Our growing collection of Inspire To Nurture Resources includes downloadable CPD packs, reflective journals, creative planning templates, and toolkits designed to support continuous professional growth.

Each resource encourages teams to reflect, discuss, and take meaningful action — promoting a culture of lifelong learning and improvement.

Whether used for individual reflection, staff meetings, or leadership planning, our tools are practical, inspiring, and grounded in real early years practice.
