Stay and Play Sessions for Mothers and Young Children – Outdoor Adventures with Down in the Forest
Stay and Play Worcestershire
We are delighted to offer outdoor stay and play sessions for mothers, toddlers, and young children, set in the beautiful woodland space at Boundless Outdoors Quantry Ln, Stourbridge DY9 9UU
These sessions are a chance to slow down, breathe in the fresh air, and let little ones explore and play freely in a natural, calm environment. Perfect for children aged 6 months to 6 years, these sessions are all about muddy play, nature exploration, and connecting with others.

About Fiona
For over 15 years, I worked as a veterinary nurse, caring for animals and supporting their wellbeing. Life took a new direction when I became a mum. Raising six children is an adventure in itself, but having two children with special educational needs (SEN), introduced me to something that changed everything: Forest School.
I saw firsthand how being outdoors transformed my children—their confidence grew, their mental health improved, and their love for learning flourished in a way that traditional settings couldn’t offer. Inspired by this, I trained as a Forest School Leader, qualifying in 2022. Since then, I’ve been leading sessions in primary schools, running sessions during the holidays, as well as working freelance for others.
Now, I’m taking the next step by training in Therapeutic Forest School, deepening my ability to support children through nature-based learning. My passion lies in helping young people reconnect with nature, build resilience, and find joy in the outdoors. Nature has a way of healing, teaching and inspiring. I’m grateful everyday to be part of that journey for so many people.
