Founded on a Dream

Dimples Daycare was born from a simple belief: that early education should be a joyful adventure. Our founder, Erika Addo visioned a space where children are respected as capable learners and where their innate curiosity is the compass for their education. Here, we build a foundation on nurturing, joy, laughter, creativity .

Our Philosophy

We take pride in being an Ofsted-registered facility that embraces a child-led, Montessori-inspired approach to nurturing development. Our philosophy is rooted in the idea that daycare should feel as warm and welcoming as visiting a best friend's home; an environment brimming with joy, excitement, and laughter.

At Dimples Daycare, we create a home-like setting where every child is encouraged to Laugh, Learn, and Play. Our commitment lies in fostering independent thinking and building self-esteem through engaging play and meaningful social interactions.

Individuality

We respect every child as a unique individual with boundless potential, nurturing their innate curiosity and unique path of growth.

Community

Building a strong foundation of social bonds, we create a supportive environment where children learn the value of friendship and togetherness.

Creativity

Imagination is our compass. Through daily art, music, and creative expression, we ignite the imaginative sparks in every child’s heart.

Nature

Connecting little hearts with the natural world. Our garden classroom also provides endless opportunities for wonder and discovery.

Our Story

I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have been raised by wonderful parents. While my mother set a strong example as a childminder for 30 years, it was my father who truly served as our family’s heartbeat. He was gentle, nurturing, and endlessly supportive never one to raise his voice, but always ready to engage in thoughtful conversation.

He encouraged my siblings and I to explore the world through play, even letting us dance in the rain to fully embrace the joys of childhood. Our home was a revolving door for neighborhood friends, filled with laughter and shared meals; it felt like a natural sanctuary where everyone was welcome. My father fostered an environment where we were truly free to Laugh, Learn, and Play.

The New Chapter

Fast forward to 2023: I was a mother to three grown, accomplished children and working as a Clinical Consultant. I was ready to travel the world and eventually embrace the joys of grandmotherhood. However, life surprised our family with an unexpected blessing a new baby, our "pension baby."

Our youngest quickly became our greatest inspiration. She reignited my passion for childcare and reminded me of the vital importance of letting children simply be children. She inspired my family and I to create a safe, homely environment where laughter and discovery are at the heart of every day. What once felt like a distant dream began to feel like a true calling. Therefore, Dimples Daycare was born.

After three decades of experience as a mother of four, a Pre-school Educator, a General Nurse, and a Clinical Compliance Manager. I have returned to my deep-rooted passion. I am dedicated to providing high-quality, clinical-grade safety and care, infused with the simple, transformative love my father showed us.
