What Early Years PE says

Give Your Child the Best Start with Early Years PE!

At Early Years PE, we make sports and fun go hand in hand! Our high-energy, play-based sessions are designed for children aged 5 and under, helping them build confidence, coordination, and a love for movement.

Through imaginative storytelling and exciting activities, your child will develop key physical skills while having an amazing time. We offer structured six-week blocks covering Football, Rugby, Cricket, Tennis, and Athletics - each session infused with EYFS 7 areas of learning to support their development.

No experience needed—just a love for play! Whether your little one is kicking their first football or racing to the finish line, our sessions are inclusive, engaging, and full of smiles.

Spaces are limited—book now and let the adventure begin!

About

I’m Josh Candy, the founder of Early Years PE, a program that provides high-quality physical education explicitly tailored for nursery-aged children. With over 15 years of experience in coaching and teaching, I’ve devoted my career to helping children develop physically, mentally, and socially through engaging and purposeful activities.

I hold a degree in Secondary Physical Education, which has provided me with a strong foundation in understanding how children learn and grow through sports and physical activity. In addition, I’ve earned coaching badges in Football and Rugby, equipping me with the skills to deliver structured, effective, and engaging sessions.

My journey began with 3 years of teaching in Primary and Secondary schools, where I built a comprehensive understanding of child development at different stages. For the last 8 years, I’ve worked full-time in nurseries, delivering PE sessions that blend the principles of the EYFS framework with foundational sports skills.

In April 2024, I launched Early Years PE because I believe the Early Years deserves a curriculum that recognizes its unique needs—a curriculum that fosters movement, confidence, and a love of physical activity from the very beginning.

On a personal level, I’m a husband and a dad to two wonderful girls who inspire my passion for creating opportunities for children to thrive. I bring this same dedication and care to every session I design, aiming to give all children the tools they need to grow into active, happy, and confident individuals.

Through Early Years PE, I hope to elevate the role of physical education in nurseries, offering programs in Football, Rugby, Cricket, Tennis, and Athletics—all delivered in a fun, imaginative and age-appropriate way.
