      NatalieOperations Manager
    As the Operations Manager for Childcare & Learning Group, I oversee Cranbrook Independent Nursery & Pre-School, Working Mums Daycare & Pre-School, Castle Nursery & Pre-School, Millie’s House Nursery & Preschool and Anglo-Spanish Nursery School. I have worked in the childcare industry for more than 30 years and have two children of my own. Prior to being Operations Manager, I worked as a Nursery Manager in the Cranbrook group of nurseries, having originally started as a Nursery Practitioner. As Operations Manager I am accountable for the development of each nursery. I ensure they are equipped with the manpower, expert knowledge and training required to ensure compliance with a range of legislation and best practice. This enables all children to develop in a safe and secure environment and to reach their full potential. I love the challenge of the role, and most importantly I relish contributing to your child’s happiness.

        MichelleRegional Manager
      I commenced the role of Regional Manager for Childcare & Learning Group in August 2018, having previously been the Area Manager since January 2016. This followed many years working as the Nursery Manager at Castle Nursery & Preschool at our Markenfield setting. During my time as manager, I completed my B.Ed. in Early Years and then went on to complete my Masters in Early Years. Early childhood education and care has always been very important to me and a job I love. This grew even more when I had my own two children. There is nothing like having two children of your own go through child care settings to really put into focus the incredible responsibility and importance of our roles. My love of early years and parenting is what drives me to ensure we are delivering quality to the children in our settings.

        My present role as Regional Manager for Childcare & Learning Group, follows the journey of my career starting with Cranbrook Nursery & Preschool, where I first joined Buttercup Barn in May 2000 as a Nursery Practitioner. I then moved to Ivy Cottage as a Deputy Manager and in 2002 I became the Manager. I transferred to Clover Court Nursery in 2010 and at the start of 2018 reached out to London’s Working Mums’ East Sheen nursery where I supported during a transition between managers. In August 2018, I was appointed Regional Manager for Childcare & Learning Group. My interest in early childhood education began when I was 13 years old, having completed a school work experience in a Nursery. From that point, I knew I wanted this to be my career and to make a difference in the start of a child’s life. I have a BA Hons in Childcare and Education.

        Working Mums Daycare & Pre-School offers a very high standard of care, experienced and qualified staff.
