Melanie Shepherd | Muddy Boots Acomb Nursery Manager

Level 6 Qualified

Home Melanie Shepherd

Hi Mel! How long have you worked at Muddy Boots?

Hi! I’ve worked for Muddy Boots for 6 years

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.

Do you have any children yourself? 

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!

What do you like to do outside of work?

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.

Finally, tell us your likes & dislikes!

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!
