Hi, I’m Natalie, I am proud to say with the help and support of my fantastic team and the wonderful families I work along side I have achieved Ofsted Outstanding 3 times in a row.
All staff here must be committed to continued professional development within the setting to ensure we are always up to date on current events.
All of the team are DBS checked and hold a level 3 and above in childcare, education and other child related courses and hold safeguarding level 2 and above and are all paediatric first aid trained.
Although all staff know all of the children inside out we have our key groups so we can focus on your child’s emotional, physical and cognitive well being in partnership with you and any other key people in your child’s life. My key group are the beetles (rising 2 year old) and the a lady birds (2 year olds)
We use the Early years foundation stage and a childbase approach to support each child along their individual learning journeys.
My name is Beka and I am a childminding assistant here at Natalie’s during term time. I am the Butterflies (rising 3 year olds) and Bees (preschool) key worker I enjoy arts and crafts, reading and I have my level 3 in childcare and eduction. I also hold a paediatric first aid certificate and my safeguarding training has recently just been updated.
I have many years of childcare and education experience especially working alongside children with additional needs.
Hi, I’m Liv and I have recently completed my apprenticeship level 3 in childcare and education here at Natalie’s. I am going to continue my role here full time as a qualified early years educator now that I’ve completed my training.
I hold an up to date paediatric first aid certificate and have recently updated my safeguarding training also.
I am the key worker for the caterpillar group (birth to around 18 months old)
My name is Ellie and I’ve been a part of the team at Natalie’s now from being a student on work placement. I work alongside Natalie and Olivia during school holidays and I work across all of the key groups.
As well as working at Natalie’s, I am also a teaching assistant and 1:1 sen support at a local primary school also which gives a great working relationship between the setting and the school and enhances the ease of school transitions.
