Hello - I’m Laura, and I’m so excited to welcome you to Hartbeeps Watford!
I spent 11 years as a Primary School teacher, with the final 5 years working in Reception within the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). It was during this time that my passion for early childhood development truly began, and I saw first-hand just how powerful learning through play, music and imagination can be.
After welcoming my first daughter, Hallie, I attended my very first Hartbeeps session — and instantly fell in love. The magic, the joy, and the child-led approach spoke to everything I value as an educator and as a parent. From that moment, I knew I wanted to become a Hartbeeps Imaginator… and with a lot of hard work (and a little bit of luck!), that dream became a reality.
Since then, I’ve also welcomed my second daughter, Lily, who has grown up enjoying Hartbeeps too — experiencing the music, movement and magic just like so many of the little ones who attend my classes.
What I love most about Hartbeeps is working alongside parents and their children, nurturing confidence, curiosity and creativity through music, movement and imaginative play. I’ve seen the incredible impact this has on children — not just in preparing them for school, but in giving them the foundations for a happy, confident start to life.
I feel incredibly proud and grateful to now own my own slice of Hartbeeps and to work in a role I truly adore. I can’t wait to meet you and your little one and to journey together down the rabbit hole into new adventures each week — adventures that help prepare children for the biggest adventure of all… a joyful, confident life full of awe and wonder <3
