About this event

This live and interactive network meeting offers an opportunity to pause, consider current issues in early childhood, and deepen understanding through professional dialogue.

In this session, we'll be joined by Greg Bottrill who will explore the idea of Koselig—a Norwegian term that describes the feeling of warmth, comfort, and intimacy that comes from being surrounded by loved ones, or simply being in a cozy and inviting environment.

Join our Inspiration Network!

Inspiration needs fuel—and there’s nothing like connecting with others who care deeply about young children’s wellbeing and learning.

Our Inspiration Network sessions invite you to recharge, rethink, and return to your practice with renewed energy and insight.

Expect a blend of facilitated reflection, peer exchange, and provocations designed to stimulate fresh thinking around pedagogy, practice, and purpose in the early years.

Your voice matters!

Bring an open heart, curious mind, and any reflections you'd like to share. You won’t be a spectator – come prepared to participate (cameras on and ready to talk).

From breakout chats to shared reflections, you’ll be part of the conversation shaping the future of early childhood practice.

PLEASE NOTE: Our Inspiration Network sessions will NOT be recorded, as we want to encourage as much professional dialogue and reflection as possible.

Frequently asked questions

Is this event free?

Yes! All of the HEART Midlands Early Years Stronger Practice Hub activities are funded by the Department for Education (DfE).

Who can attend?

The HEART Midlands Early Years Stronger Practice Hub is funded to offer activity to early years providers/practitioners based in Birmingham, Coventry, Herefordshire, Solihull, Worcestershire and Warwickshire.

What if I work outside of your hub areas?

If you are outside these areas but work in the early years sector and would like to attend, then of course we would love to see you! However, we will prioritise places for practitioners within our area if numbers are limited.

Why can't I book a place?

It might be full! We add a waiting list to all of our bookable activities and you might be offered a place if someone else's circumstances change and they can no longer attend. We also review waiting lists and will endeavour to offer the activity at a future date if there is a lot of interest.

What happens if I can no longer attend the event?

If your circumstances change, PLEASE sign back in to Eventbrite and cancel your place to release it to someone else on the waiting list.
