WHAT OUR TEAM THINKS ABOUT WORKING ABOUT MUDDY BOOTS:
“Right from the interview I felt at home, and was offered a job shortly after (go me!) Since that point then it’s been a whirlwind six years where I have worked my way from an unqualified practitioner to becoming manager of the Acomb branch.
I have done a level 3 in Childhood studies through York Council alongside a BH Hons Open Degree that focused for the first 4 years on Early Years and Childhood Studies. Even with all this going on, Muddy Boots has never said no to my thirst for knowledge, they have always allowed and encouraged me to attend training that I felt would benefit myself, my peers and ultimately the children I then care for.
The team, owners and even the parents have always been there to support, guide, and keep me sane throughout the journey, and I honestly don’t think I could have tackled it all without their support and understanding! Berni – Manager at Muddy Boots Acomb
