Our nursery service is a 1 hour session where we visit each of the age-related rooms teaching sign language to the children linked to traditional nursery rhymes and other songs. Research shows that early exposure to signing helps children develop their language and reasoning skills. Whilst some children cry to get what they want and end up frustrated, signing children learn how to communicate with words and simple phrases. At the end of the session, the children then get to stroke, cuddle and interact with Noodle which they all look forward to. Each week we can focus on different themes dependant on what the nursery is focusing on.
We also offer a 1 to 1 service in some of our nurseries that we visit, with children who are having particular difficulties in communication which has proven to be very successful.
In school Noodle is more of an emotional support dog, who is happy to be sat and stroked whilst the children read to him, play chess, learn some sign language or just be there for some conversation and a cuddle. He can also help calm them down if they are having difficulties with anxiety or anger issues.
We also offer an exam support service where the children can stroke and spend time with Noodle before SATS, GCSE’s and A- Levels.
We are happy to discuss your requirements with you and work with you on what it is your school or particular child needs.
We can visit your place or work to assist with the general wellbeing of your staff, boost morale and generally increase positivity in a work environment.
