OUR PEOPLE MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
With 18 qualified staff on site and a higher ratio of qualified staff to children that exceeds the OFSTED requirements, you can rest assured that your child is being treated as an individual.
Extremely robust, comprehensive recruitment and vetting procedures are implemented to ensure that all adults working with the children are suitable to do so. This includes rigorous referencing and enhanced DBS checks.
All staff are either qualified to:
Foundation degree in Early Years & Childcare
NVQ Level 3 in childcare
NVQ Level 2 in Childcare
(or working on an apprenticeship to achieve the above)
