Growing Minds Through Play
At Dolly's Daycare, we believe children learn best when they're curious, free and having fun. Our enrichment sessions blend play with purpose, including weekly phonics lessons with Jackie from Phonics Stars, a qualified primary school teacher who brings sounds and letters to life through songs, games and stories. We also explore the natural world through Forest School sessions with Evelyn, a fully qualified and insured teacher who encourages children to discover and care for the beautiful world around them.

Phonics with Jackie
Making learning letters and sounds fun!Â
At Dolly’s Daycare, we’re delighted to welcome Phonics Stars Dartford into our setting to deliver fun, interactive phonics sessions designed to give little learners a head start in their early literacy journey.
Through a combination of music, movement, dancing, songs and playful activities, children are introduced to letters, sounds and early communication skills in an exciting and engaging way.
These sessions help children develop their listening skills, build confidence, recognise sounds and begin laying the foundations for early reading and writing.
We believe children learn best when they’re having fun, and Phonics Stars brings learning to life through activities that encourage participation, curiosity and a love of discovery.
By introducing phonics in a playful and positive environment, we’re helping our little ones build important skills and confidence as they take their next steps towards school.
Learning through play, one little sound at a time! 💜


Exploring Nature with Evelyn
At Dolly’s Daycare, we’re passionate about giving children the opportunity to learn, explore and discover the wonderful world around them. That’s why we’re delighted to welcome Evelyn from Exploring Nature to provide exciting outdoor learning and nature-based experiences for our little ones.
Through engaging, hands-on activities, children are encouraged to connect with nature, discover the changing seasons and develop a greater understanding of the natural environment.
From exploring plants, leaves and wildlife to discovering natural textures, investigating the world around them and enjoying outdoor adventures, every session offers something new to spark curiosity and imagination.
These experiences help children develop important life skills, including confidence, independence, resilience, creativity and problem-solving, while encouraging a love and respect for the natural world.
We believe that some of the best learning happens outside the classroom. By giving children the freedom to explore, investigate and learn through real-life experiences, we’re helping them develop a sense of wonder that will stay with them as they grow.

At Dolly’s Daycare, we’re making memories, discovering nature and growing little explorers one adventure at a time! 💜🌿
