We are a social enterprise providing affordable childcare to families in Renfrewshire. Our aim is to enhance the children's learning outcomes by tackling challenging behaviours, especially in outdoor settings such as the forest and garden. This type of ‘experiential’ learning also appears to equip children with practical skills and an appreciation for being outdoors, which they can then transfer to family activities outside.
