Happy Little Hearts Preschool
where dreams
come true!!
Located in the heart of Leicester, our qualified and dedicated team is passionate about creating a safe, caring, and exciting place for your child to grow, learn, and shine.
At Happy Little Hearts, every moment is an adventure! Whether they’re diving into imaginative role play, getting wonderfully messy with hands-on sensory experiences, or exploring the natural wonders of our beautiful woodland area and outdoor spaces, our children are encouraged to follow their curiosity, unleash their creativity, and grow their confidence.
As they engage in these activities, both indoors and outdoors, they also expand their communication and language skills, learning new vocabulary, and expressing themselves more clearly. Every experience is designed to ignite their imagination, build a love for learning, and inspire them to explore the world with joy, wonder, and words.
Mission Statement
At Happy Little Hearts Preschool, our mission is to provide an inclusive, supportive, and inspiring environment where all children, including those with Additional Needs (SEND) and English as an Additional Language (EAL), can thrive.
We place a strong focus on developing Communication and Language, building Confidence, and fostering Independence. These vital skills help prepare children not just for school, but for real life.
We’re here to support the whole family too, working closely with parents and carers to ensure that every child receives the best start in life.
By embracing both British values and our Islamic ethos, we aim to raise children who are compassionate, thoughtful, and ready to take on the world.
Our Ethos
Strength in Unity:
At the heart of our approach is the ethos we celebrate, where we nurture children with values of kindness, respect, love, honesty, and compassion. By instilling these principles, we create an environment where children are encouraged to develop empathy, respect for others, and a strong sense of social responsibility, preparing them to contribute positively to both their communities and the wider world.
We believe in celebrating diversity and creating a place where every child feels they truly belong, regardless of their colour, background or beliefs.
We encourage children to have their opinions, make choices, and actively participate in decision-making, both in the classroom and in group settings. This fosters a sense of ownership, responsibility, and respect for others’ ideas and contributions. Children learn that their voices matter, and that everyone has the right to be heard.
Tolerance and mutual respect are central to our daily interactions. We teach children to embrace diversity, be open-minded, and show understanding towards others, regardless of differences in culture, faith, or abilities. These values emphasise kindness and respect for all individuals.
We help children understand the importance of rules and how they contribute to creating a fair and safe environment for everyone. By explaining why rules are necessary, we instil a sense of responsibility and respect for authority while encouraging children to behave in ways that show respect for others.
We also nurture individual liberty by empowering children to explore their interests, ask questions, and make choices independently. In line with Islamic values of personal development and self-expression, we encourage children to be confident in their abilities and to develop a strong sense of identity, all while fostering a deep respect for the rights and freedoms of others.
At Happy Little Hearts Preschool, we integrate these British values with our Islamic ethos to create a learning environment where children develop into well-rounded, compassionate individuals. By embedding kindness, respect, and understanding into their daily lives, we prepare children to contribute positively to both their local communities and the wider world.
