If you read further, some of staff members have written a little bit about themselves - not all as yet - modesty prevents them but we are trying to gently coax them.
Kathryn
Admittedly, not my best picture! I returned to the Nursery at the beginning of 2010 after a year's break on maternity leave, at which time I took up the post of Acting Nursery Manager.
To keep up with the ever changing legislation governing childcare nurseries, I am kept fairly busy with the inevitable paperwork that has to be done, but my greatest pleasure is always ensuring that all the children in our care receive the best care and love that we can give.
To endorse my philosophy that Lots Of Tots is second to none in providing the best childcare in the area, my own son Dillon attends the creche once a week.

Hi, my name is Emily. I first came to Lots Of Tots as a student some 13 years ago, before returning as a member of the staff: in fact as Relief Dputy Manager. I am fully qualified to NVQ level 3 childcare . The children call me Little Miss Scatterbrain as I come up with many scatterbrain ideas which the children love.
