Overall Experience

Our little boy started nursery in May and has already improved on his speech. He has settled in well and really looks forward to going to the nursery every morning. We can't wait to see what else he improves on, while here.

Sabrina Ecclestone

Sabrina has worked at The Lyme Nursery since 2000. With two young children Sabrina not only has an abundance of academic knowledge and qualifications DNN (NNEB), NVQ4 in Leadership & Management and Foundation Degree in Early Childhood Studies but the first-hand experience with babies and young children.

Sabrina is a very calming character around the Nursery and always brings out the best in children and staff. She has attended numerous training courses on EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) and is constantly thinking of new fun ideas and initiatives to encourage child development.

Lorraine Rastovan Job Title: Deputy Manager Joined: 2018
Lorraine Rastovan

Lorraine (AKA ’Rain’) began her employment at the Nursery in 2018 as a Modern Apprentice. Gaining her Level 3 in Early Years Childhood Development, Lorraine was promoted to Assistant Team Leader and then, in January 2021, with another promotion under her belt, she became a permanent Team Leader. After five years of gaining experience in all areas of the Nursery, we were delighted to announce another promotion in March 2023 to Deputy Manager. The children absolutely love it when Lorraine is in the classrooms, constantly asking her to stay and play. Lorraine is always so proud of everything the classrooms and children do. Being a creative person herself, she always comments on their wall displays, which show the artwork that has been created.
