Supporting your child's phonics and reading at home can be overwhelming, especially if you've never done it before.

You're worried about teaching them incorrectly and hindering their progress. Your child doesn't like 'learning at home'. You're wondering how you're going to fit yet another thing into your already packed full day.

I know you’re not looking for more to do.

You need something that feels doable. 

The Little Reading Reset gives you simple, no-pressure ways to fit reading, writing, and phonics into everyday moments through play (the kind that doesn't require resources or clean up!).

It’s made for busy days, tired brains, and real-life routines so that you can support your child’s learning without the overwhelm.

Over 50 no/low-prep games based on the 7 core phonics skills, and 5 different ways to read with your child.

The Phonics at Home Curriculum

Support your child with phonics lessons at home.

The Phonics at Home Curriculum was created by a former teacher and SENCo, and carefully designed to fit into the chaos and calm of everyday life, so learning never feels like one more thing on your to-do list.

"My little boy is engaged throughout the lessons thanks to the interactive movement games, songs for each sound, and writing opportunities. He even asked to do more lessons as soon as we finished the first one! I get to actually enjoy learning with him, instead of worrying if I'm doing it right." 

Holly, Mum to Mateo

Hi, I’m Del.

Early Reading and Phonics Teacher, SENCo, mum, and founder of The Little Reading Nest.

Motherhood was a shock to the system, even after years of teaching Early Years.

I knew how to support my daughter’s learning in small, meaningful ways, but online, all I found were extremes: overly complicated activities or total burnout.

I created The Little Reading Nest to offer a calm middle ground - practical phonics help, no-pressure ideas, and the reminder that you’re already doing more than enough.
