My little boy has loved his time at wolstanton kindergarten and his progress whilst being there is outstanding. Only 12 months ago at age 3, he wasn't speaking, bar a few words, they worked alongside the SALT targets and now we can't keep him quiet. the staff are exceptionally friendly and know the children incredibly well including their personal interests. We had a difficult 12 months with his father's illness and they wrapped him up with lots of love and sensitivity during this time and following his father's passing. I always knew he was thoughtfully cared for and his wellbeing and emotional needs met. Thank you for everything you have done for him.

My child has developed and learnt so much since attending the nursery and has built great bonds with the staff over this time. He especially loves all the outdoor play they have and the fun activities they do outside.
The nursery staff are always very friendly and kind when we arrive in the morning and always ask how my child has been since their last visit which gives me the opportunity to make them aware of anything they need to know. Throughout the day my child's "family" app is updated which gives you great comfort in knowning what your child is up to, what they have eaten, how they've slept and we have great photos added every day.
My child has had some delay with his speech, which the staff members have noticed along with us at home. They have helped with sessions to assess/improve his speech and have made referrals to speech and language.

Meet the Team (2)

I hold a BA (Hons) in Education and a Foundation Degree in Early Years and have worked within the Early Years sector for many years. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment where every child feels happy, valued and supported to achieve their full potential.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my role is helping children settle into nursery, watching them grow in confidence and celebrating the milestones they achieve along the way. I also enjoy building strong relationships with families and continually developing both myself and our team through ongoing training to ensure we provide the highest quality care and education.

I began my childcare career as an apprentice and quickly realised I had found the profession I was meant to be in. After achieving my Level 3 Early Years qualification, I gained experience across the nursery before becoming Baby Room Leader and Deputy Manager.
I love supporting our youngest children as they reach important milestones and watching their personalities blossom. Working closely with families and supporting our staff team to create a positive, caring environment is something I find incredibly rewarding. Every day is different, and I feel privileged to play a part in giving children the very best start in life.
