ANIMAL CARE

Community
At Kingswood Childcare in Devon, animals are an integral part of the setting’s ethos, offering endless opportunities for learning, connection and joy. The nursery is home to Shetland ponies, goats, geese, ducks, chickens and guinea pigs.

The nursery says that the children love gently holding the guinea pigs in their hands, and the interactions help foster values such as respect, kindness and empathy, while also teaching responsibility.
