A day with us
From hello to home time
The best way to know a nursery is to feel its rhythm. Scroll gently through a day at My Ohana, the small, warm moments that make up your child’s time with us.

A warm welcome at the door
Little ones arrive to a familiar, smiling key person. Coats and branded bags hung up, a wave goodbye, and the day begins gently, at their own pace.
Every child is greeted by name, because feeling known is where it all starts.
Breakfast together
A calm, social start around the table, fresh fruit, toast and warm porridge to set everyone up for the morning.
Freshly prepared, with allergens carefully managed.
Settling into play
Rooms come alive with child-led play (playdough, sand and water, mark-making) alongside a calm moment of yoga, breathwork and myHappyMind to centre busy minds.
We follow the child: today’s interest becomes tomorrow’s learning.
A little something
A relaxed pause to refuel with fresh fruit, crackers and hummus, and a drink before the garden calls.
Healthy, simple snacks, served calmly.
Out in the garden
Whatever the weather, we head outside, digging, planting and watering, sand play, climbing and riding tricycles. The garden is where confidence grows.
Muddy knees and rosy cheeks: the signs of a good morning.
Lunch, served family-style
A proper meal shared together, curry, rice, naan and fresh coriander set out on the table for little ones to serve themselves.
Self-serving builds independence; every meal is freshly prepared and nutritionally balanced.
A calm, cosy pause
After a busy morning the room softens, rest mats and blankets for those who sleep, and a quiet reading corner for those who don’t.
Rest happens at each child’s own rhythm, never on the clock.
Afternoon snack
A gentle wake-up and a little refuel of fresh fruit, biscuits and hummus, ready for the afternoon ahead.
Sociable, unhurried and always freshly prepared.
Imagining and exploring
Small-group activities and plenty of imaginative play, role play in the home corner, dressing up and adventures dreamed up together.
Mind, Body and World, woven through everyday play.
Tea together
A warm, simple tea to round off the day, pasta with a side of tomatoes and parmesan to grate over the top.
Another freshly prepared meal, no hidden extras.
Winding down
The day slows with story times, sensory toys and puzzles: calm, comforting and just right for tired little hands.
Gentle, restorative play as the day draws in.
“Look what I made today!”
Proud faces, paintings to take home and a warm handover that tells you all about their day. Until tomorrow.
You’ll always know how their day really went, the little wins included.
This could be your child’s day
Every day is a little different, but the warmth is always the same. Come and feel it for yourself.
