My favourite thing about Early years
My favourite thing about Early Years is seeing the world through children’s eyes. Their curiosity, excitement, and sense of wonder make every day special. I love watching children grow in confidence, discover new interests, and celebrate their achievements, no matter how big or small.

Qualifications and ratios
Several of our Early Years staff have been with us for over 10 years. In a sector with high turnover, that matters a lot: it means the person who settles your child in September is still there in July.
All of our Early Years staff hold qualifications and are paediatric first aid trained. Every member of staff is DBS checked and trained in safeguarding, and we have a designated safeguarding lead.
Our full safeguarding policy is available to download.
We work to ratios of 1:5 for two-year-olds and 1:8 for three- and four-year-olds, which is the statutory requirement.
