Amanda -<\/strong>\u00a0Practitioner<\/h4>\n

Childcare has always been my passion and, apart from a couple of years making ambulances ready to go out on the front line, I have always worked with children - in Pre-school, nursery and I started my career as a nanny many years ago.\u00a0I love to see children develop, learn and grow.<\/p>\n

I love to crochet in my spare time and to spend time with my beautiful granddaughter, Darcie.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Emma <\/strong>- Practitioner<\/h4>\n
I have always enjoyed working with children. In the past I have worked in a nursery, been a nanny for a few families and also worked in a school as a LSA.<\/div>\n
I love to ensure that the children feel safe and secure and have lots of fun whilst at Pre-school, which also encourages their development, and to see them thrive is very rewarding.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

I live at home with my 2 children and my husband. I also have a bearded dragon called Spikey (he's really cool). They all keep me busy, however, when I do have some spare time, I enjoy gardening, going to concerts, going for a run and even like to sit and build Lego sets, particularly the flower sets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
