**About Us**:
Tree House Friends are an exciting and forward thinking company offering a new type of childcare for families in North London. We care for and educate children aged from 2-5, following the core Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, incorporating learning in an outdoor environment where free play, fresh air, exposure to the natural world and physical activity are an integral part of learning.

Our aim is to address the increasing disconnect between children and nature by opening an outdoor nursery, thriving to achieve an Ofsted rated Outstanding.

**Our Ethos**:
Tree House Friends was established to give children - including our own - the chance to grow up with a sense of awe and freedom as part of their everyday lives. After all, wisdom begins in wonder. We have created a world where children are inspired by nature to live a simple and naturally healthy lifestyle, breaking away from the modern childhood of sedentary screen based or prescriptive plastic toy playtime to play the natural way we played as children.

We want to give every child the childhood they deserve. We welcome children from all backgrounds and will help children achieve their maximum potential in life by helping to develop their characters to give them the tools they need for a happy and successful life - confidence, resilience, self-motivation, enthusiasm, independence and an insatiable curiosity about the world.

We strive for constant innovation to ensure we are committed to offering the best known practice in educating children and are passionate to the point of obsession with an outdoors, child-led, play-based happy and healthy environment. We see ourselves not as babysitters offering childcare but as inspirational educators offering an incredibly fun and learning-rich experience for children - the fact that we also offer childcare is almost incidental.

An enhanced DBS ‘Disclosure and Barring Service’ check for regulated activity (formerly known as CRB) and the Children’s and Adults’ Barred List checks will be required for this role.
