Eyfs Resources Description

A company created by an early years professional for the early years professional, and in fact for everyone who cares about pre-school education and delivers a fantastic job, often quietly, day in and day out. To us, you will always be 'outstanding! '

EYFS Resources has been synonymous with superbly crafted, easy to use and fairly priced early years provider resources since Maria Marraffa launched the company in 2012. With a growing portfolio of EYFS items including tell-a-tale story bags and daily diaries, each piece offers the professional childcare setting a curriculum driven, quality and competitively priced product.

However, the company does not stop there.

Since its launch EYFS Resources has grown rapidly thanks to its unique daily collaboration with the industry. After all who understands better the hurdles of the professional childcare provider than another professional childcare provider? As the pre-school field changes rapidly EYFS Resources remains committed to delivering everything that a competent practitioner needs. It continues to go from strength-to-strength not just through its development of early years products but from its ability to offer expert nursery business advice, accountancy and training opportunities. Currently, it provides:
A membership service where EYFS Resources becomes another member of your team
EYFS consultancy from an EYP
A facility where you can get your own branding placed on paperwork and products
Bookkeeping from an EYP
Business coaching and grant application
Specialist training services for childcare settings including manual handling, EpiPen use etc.
On-line support where your social media platforms can be developed
EYFS products and development of new items to meet your need
Even embroidering your uniforms and branding your products!

It is imperative that every child receives the very best start to their development journey; we are there to make this happen with you.

EYFS Resources continues to evolve honestly from the opinions of the pre-school community. At the heart of everything it does is a dialogue with nursery practitioners. Through this, it responds to changing standards and support gaps to help everyone who wants to deliver a childcare setting of excellence easily, simply and within what often are tight budgets.

Talk to us, our fellow professionals and community; we will listen and help you to build a pre-school business that you, the community, parents and children are proud of.

💫 Maria’s son RJ (aged 14) has been working out in Peru 🇵🇪 for the summer helping to build a classroom with his fellow students (and teachers) for a orphanage in Iquitos, 🇵🇪.... the children in Iquitos we are told are so happy, and take pleasure in all they see, they love the new classrooms and love to play and learn... blessed 💫
💫 The experience has been immense - we at EYFS Resources would like to say a huge thank you to the Oakhill Team for their wonderful and selfless ef...forts that they have displayed to make the lives of these orphaned little girls a little bit better.. 💫

Superb 1-2-1 Safeguarding session with a delegate from a local pre school in Lancashire.
The session allowed us to both look at 3.4,3.5 and 3.6 of the EYfS in detail and identify:
✅ Signs and symptoms of abuse ... ✅ How, when and who to refer to ✅ the role of the DSL and their responsibilities ✅ Safeguarding policies and Procedures ✅ Lancashire Continuum of Need and the early identification and intervention process ✅ FGM and culture and Faith linked abuse

⭐️ Olivia-Layla can sometimes struggle with times tables, so she has hand-made these amazing times tables swipe cards so other children can have their own copies. ⭐️
She’s has learned so much about setting up a business, the costs involved , and of course profit and loss...
EYFSR are not making ANY profit they are donating all materials and for every order placed making a donation to Olivia’s Charity..
... 💥She will handmake these to order 💥 ONLY £3.00 each +P&P 💥The chosen charity is Friends of Serenity 💥This is not Olivia’s design and she is charging only for the time it has taken to make these for people. 💥Help Olivia raise money for Infant Loss -Friends of Serenity.
THANK YOU XXXXX

was a great course and an amazing day. I was dreading getting up this morning to go on a first aid course when the weather was so nice. Not like any other first aid course ive ever been on we did get to enjoy the sunshine after all as the course took place outside even with a bbq and icecream to enjoy. i would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting to do a first aid course in the future. i would like to return here on any other courses. maria and gemma were lovely and couldnt do enough for us. x

User

We have had a great experience working with EYFS resource since starting our child minding business in the last few months. They have saved us money at every turn and we have received first class First Aid training, and gained knowledge we previously did not have about GDPR and the other topics we have used them for. Great service, Great people, Great company. We will be using them over and over in the future. I am sure of it.

User

Very helpful and fast service would highly recommend to everyone, with being a Childminder and working on my own it’s nice to know there are people out there who genuinely want to help as well as keeping the costs down, Thankyou for all your hard work x

User

Thanks for a great first aid training day. Everything explained in detail, all of our questions answered in detail. Highly recommend if you want a relaxed atmosphere to learn in!

Such a fantastic place to have training and well worth traveling to go and meet the EYFS team. We had a lovely welcome, putting us at ease. Great surroundings and a very knowledgable friendly trainer.

I would highly recommend a visit to train in a friendly environment.

Thank you for making a weekend training so pleasurable.

Previously attended a safe guarding course, with this company but i have to say i loved paediatric first aid course - really informative and thorough. Maria is professional yet very friendly and full of information. I would more than recommend anyone needing a course in relation to child care not to go anywhere else. Eyfs resources has all that's needed to equip you and more. Thankyou so much.

Look forward to continuing with this brilliant, friendly company

I have done various courses now at EYFS and have always found them to be fantastic, lovely setting and great people who make you feel very welcome.
