ABOUT US I would like to introduce myself. My name is Jackie Howse and I bought my first nursery in 2004 in Hall Green. Since then I have opened further nurseries and run an Out of School Club in Whythall. I have since downsized my operations and currently own and run Coppice Childcare Shard End my Out of School Club based on a school's premises.

Curriculum At Coppice Childcare – Shard End, we are dedicated to nurturing enthusiasm, self-confidence, and independence in every child. We believe play is fundamental to early learning: it helps children make sense of the world, develop socially and emotionally, and grow at their own pace. Through play, children learn, explore, and enjoy meaningful interactions with adults who understand, support, and care for them.
