Child in the Wild Forest School

Hayley has worked hard to combine her passion and knowledge of the natural world with her enthusiasm for early years and child development. 

Her Forest School is the perfect venue to help children (and adults!) to flourish and thrive, and to reconnect with nature. In this increasingly digital age, it is more important than ever to get outdoors, to nurture our minds, to take care of our mental health and to look after our wild world for generations to come. Connecting people to nature is the simplest, and most important aim of Child in the Wild Forest School.

The JTYAF is delighted to support access for young children and families who may not otherwise be able to take advantage of the unique opportunities that Hayley’s Child in the Wild Forest School can provide. Hayley’s child centred, regular sessions are designed to nurture the holistic growth of each child, developing their physical, intellectual, social, and emotional development through outdoor play and learning.

Awards are made by nomination.
