How long have you worked in childcare & what childcare qualifications do you currently hold?
I’ve worked in childcare for 10 years. I trained as a Primary Teacher and have Early Years Professional Status.
Why did you first want to start a career in childcare?
It’s something I always wanted to do, my Mum ran a Pre School while I was growing up and I spent a lot of time there helping out and just loved it.
What did you do before working at Muddy Boots Nursery?
I worked at another nursery before Muddy Boots and at a school in London before that.
What do you most enjoy about working at Muddy Boots?
It really is just like an extended family. I love working for a company that really cares about providing good childcare but also about being a great place to work for their staff.

I have a two girls. I four year old called Florence and a 6 month old called Amelia.
Do you have any pets?
Not at the moment!

With my family, we love to go for days out and spend time in the outdoors. I also love going to the theatre and especially enjoy musicals.
Tell us one interesting fact about yourself…
I went to uni in London and lived and worked there for a year afterwards.

Likes: Harry Potter, musicals, chocolate, time with family and friends, cheese, garlic bread and tomato, listening to music, holidays to Center Parcs and marmite!
Dislikes: Not much but I’m quite a fussy eater so there are quite a few foods I don’t like!
