Anna - nursery manager

Anna
Nursery Manager NNEB

I successfully completed a Nursery Nursing course at Derwentside College in 1999. After working at a local private day nursery for two years I decided to look for a more senior position in another setting.  This decision led me to join the Littlefeet Nursery team.  I began my new role at Littlefeet before the doors were even open and I have been working here ever since.  I have been lucky

enough to participate in making the nursery grow and expand and have had a fantastic time being part of this development.  I have now completed my NVQ level 4 In Early Years and Education.

I became a mother in 2006 to my beautiful little boy.  I bring him to the nursery with me.  When I am not working I love spending time with him and my husband.  I also enjoy socialising with my friends and family, walking my dogs and going to the cinema.

 Kristy - deputy manager

Kristy
Deputy Manager  NVQ III

I completed my Early Years course at Derwentside College. Once I was qualified I was eager to start working with children and began my childcare career at a local Primary School in the reception class.  I enjoyed my experience there and I have also worked at an out of school hours club.  However, my best experience came when I made the decision to join Littlefeet in September 2003.

I have had a lot of opportunities to develop myself at Littlefeet and this was recognised in 2006 when I was promoted from Room Supervisor to Deputy Manager.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my boyfriend, friends and family.

 Carmel - nursery nurse

Carmel
Nursery Nurse Cache Diploma

I have been interested in working with children since my experiences at a work placement based in a school and hold a Cache Diploma in Childcare. I am a Nursery Nurse at Littlefeet, working mostly with the younger children which I really enjoy.  I am seeking to further my experience and education by enrolling on a Foundation Degree in childcare in the near future.


I live in Chester Le Street and have worked at a few different day nurseries prior to joining Littlefeet.  I enjoy every aspect of my job and I especially like the fact that no two days are ever the same.

In my spare time I enjoy socialising with my friends and family, I also love to shop and listen to music.

looking forward to progressing my knowledge and experience when I start a sign language course next year.

 Amy - nursery nurse

Amy
Nursery Nurse NVQ II

I am currently finishing off my studies for NVQ III in Early Years and Education.  I have been with Littlefeet since I qualified from my NVQ II.  I have been able to developed my skills and progress my career whilst working here.  I am mainly based in the Tiny Tots room with the 1-2 year olds who I love to bits.


My hobbies include exercising and dancing.

 Kim - nursery assistant

Kim
Nursery Assistant

I have spent time working in care homes assisting and caring for people. When I worked in a children’s care home I realised that I got most job satisfaction from working with them.  I then moved to a new position at a local primary school.  I worked there part time helping out during lunch time.  I also got the opportunity to help many of the children with activities and things like reading.


I love working at Littlefeet as I get to work with really young children.  It has a really relaxed feeling here and I feel now that working with children is what my life is all about.  I love my job and I come to work happy.

In my spare time I socialise with my family and friends.  I keep horses and I love to care for them and I take every opportunity to ride them.  I also like to spend time with my dogs and particularly enjoy time with my new puppy.

Jackie
Nursery Assistant  BTEC

I completed my BTEC Diploma in Care in June 2006.  I have since been working as a Nursery Assistant. In January 2007, I joined Littlefeet as their newest member of staff.  I find working with children extremely rewarding and enjoy seeing them learn and grow and have fun whilst in our care.
