For many years I have known that I would like to care for young children in the comfort and love of my own home, It has finally happened last week. Below are a few pics of how my dream to build a 'haven' for our learning and adventures with
'Esther's Little Learners' became a reality.
I have always believed 'if you are looking for a happy ending and can't seem to find one, maybe it's time to start looking for a new beginning instead'
My story begins... January 2017-
We meet with Bryan, the architect from Waterside Architects in Lewes, and Joe and Danny the master builder owners of St James Builders in Lewes. There will be a large team of artisans in site over the next 6 months as the different stages of the build take form.
'I am Handsome Bob, and old English bulldog and I am very much a part of this site as I sit in Steve's van when I am not overseeing the brick work... or digging up the Cowan's garden' |
Chapter Four- the walls are up, the bespoke windows and doors are secure and electrics in place, and now the plastering. It takes days to dry. |
Chapter Five- Walls are painted and now the underfloor heating. Roof light is in and remote controls wired in. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, |
Comfy sofa and chair for story time or cuddles at different times of the day. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
The cot is ready for sleep time, in a quiet part of the down stairs lounge. So far, the little learner that sleeps in there has loved it and gives big smiles when I pick him up. |
Changing/ personal hygiene area with everything ready at my fingertips for all situations. |
The outdoors- A perfectly sized play house with a few chairs and learning experiences in boxes and spaces for children to discover.
