We benefit from having a mixed age range within our staff team, which means that we not only gain knowledge and understanding from new ideas but also from life experiences of being parents ourselves. This means that we have a vast wealth of knowledge and experience that can be used at any time. We share duties and responsibilities between us and because of our close working relationships all of the staff get to know all children in order for them to feel secure.
Our team all hold a variety of qualifications that are all nationally recognised. Quality interactions and playing alongside with the children is priceless. In addition to our qualifications, we ensure that all staff receive paediatric first aid training, food hygiene and safeguarding practices are all updated regularly.
