Our Creative Nanny Approach
At CocoRio, we believe that creativity is at the heart of every child’s development. That’s why our approach to childcare is rooted in play, imagination, and artistic exploration.
Our nannies and mentors actively engage children in creative play that promotes confidence, emotional resilience, and problem-solving skills. From story time and music to dance and art, each session is personalised to your child’s interests, making learning feel natural and exciting.
This research-led approach aligns with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the British National Curriculum, incorporating elements from the Montessori method and the Finnish education system. By focusing on child-led, unstructured learning, we create an environment where children thrive emotionally, socially, and academically.
Supporting Various Languages and Creative Pursuits
Language is a key part of a child’s development, and at CocoRio, we recognise its power in shaping young minds. That’s why language learning is one of our four core Magic Ingredients, alongside Music, Movement, and Art. Many of our creative nannies and mentors are multilingual, giving children the opportunity to immerse themselves in new languages through play and everyday interactions.
Research shows that early exposure to multiple languages builds stronger communication skills and opens doors to future academic and career opportunities. Our nannies and mentors naturally incorporate language learning into their sessions through songs, storytelling, and engaging conversations.
Beyond language, our creative childcare approach encourages children to explore music, dance, drama, and visual arts. By embracing creativity in all its forms, we help children express themselves and develop lifelong skills.
Meet Our Creative Nannies
Our creative nannies and mentors are carefully selected for their experience, reliability, and ability to build strong connections with children. They are mentors, role models, and sources of inspiration.
Each nanny and mentor is fully vetted to Ofsted standards and trained to handle any childcare responsibility, from mealtimes and school runs to bedtime routines and homework help. Their warm, friendly, and emotionally intelligent approach ensures that children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore their creativity.
At CocoRio, we know that every child is different. That’s why we take the time to match families with the perfect nanny or mentor, ensuring a relationship built on trust, understanding, and shared interests.
