Call Directions Website

Little Explorers is a vibrant nursery catering for up to 101 children aged 3 months to 5 years.

We are committed to a child-centred approach to childcare and as our name suggests, we will invite our children to be outside in the fresh air and participate in vigorous activities as we feel they are essential for the children's well being and fitness. The more children's muscles and senses are exercised, the more the brain will develop its capacity for learning. Inside the nursery the play rooms are comfortable and well equipped to a high standard and have been designed for the specific needs of the differing age groups, providing safe and stimulating environments for your children.

💗Happy Early Years Practitioner Appreciation Day!💗
A little appreciation for our amazing team who work so hard every day to give our Little Explorers the very best care, support and fun!
Today we’ve treated the team to some pamper gifts, lovely messages from parents and a special lunch, to say THANK YOU for everything they do.
I am so lucky to have such an amazing team. Girls, I hope you know how much I appreciate you every day 💗

Last night some of the team attended MAKATON training. The training was excellent and staff will use MAKATON throughout each day as part of our commitment to improving communication skills for all our babies and children. Very well done girls! ⭐️

Taz worked with us as our Baby room lead until very recently. If you can, I’d highly recommend joining one of her sessions!

✨MEET THE FACES BEHIND TAZMANIA! ✨

We thought it was time to introduce the faces behind the mess… 👀🫧

✨ I’M TAZ! ✨

I’m the proud co-owner of Tazmania, alongside my wonderful mum, Emma💛

My home life is just as lively as we expect our sessions to be, as I share it with my husband Liam, our two boys Leo and Lowen, and our 2 cheeky cats🏠🐱

With a Level 5 qualification in childcare and 15 years of professional experience supporting children and families, creating a safe, nurturing and exciting environment for little ones is something I’m truly passionate about.

But my absolute happy place? MESSY PLAY! 🤩

From bubbles and foam to getting completely covered in gloop, I LOVE watching little ones explore, discover and experience something new🫟🫧

I believe messy play is so much more than making a mess — it’s about sensory exploration, learning, creativity, confidence and, most importantly, having FUN!

✨ I’M EMMA✨

I am the other proud half of Tazmania and I bring a lifetime of experience and a huge heart along with me💛

As a wife, a mum of 5 adult children, 1 teenager and 2 cats and a very proud Grannie to 4 gorgeous grandsons, I know a thing or two about keeping little ones entertained!😆

With experience across childcare, first aid and accounting, I am just as happy getting stuck into the messy stuff as I am making sure everything behind the scenes runs smoothly!

I love connecting with the parents and helping them feel more confident getting stuck into the messy fun alongside their little ones. I believe Tazmania is just as much a space for parents as it is for children – a place to meet new friends, bond with their children and feel part of a warm, welcoming community.

We are both paediatric first aid trained and hold safeguarding, allergy awareness and DBS certifications.

Together, our aim is simple…

🌈 A safe space for little ones to explore
🖐️ Hands-on sensory experiences
🎨 Creative and exciting messy play
💛 A warm, welcoming environment for families
🥳 LOTS of fun, laughter and memories!

We want our parents to feel excited, confident and welcome too — because messy play is even better when you can get involved! 🙌

We’re so excited to share our passion for messy play with you and your little explorers.

Welcome to Tazmania… where little hands make BIG messes! 🎨🫧💛

🚀✨ 3… 2… 1… BLAST OFF! 🌙🪐

The Butterflies have blasted off into Space Week! 👩‍🚀👨‍🚀

Our sensory room has had a stellar makeover and has been transformed into an out-of-this-world space station — complete with their very own ROCKET! 🚀🌟

The children have been busy exploring planets, imagining life as astronauts and embarking on some seriously exciting space adventures. 🌎🌌

Who needs NASA when you have the Butterflies?! 😉🚀
