Staffing Update
15th September 2022
We are a number of staff OVER our ratio EVERY day. This is unlike most other nurseries. This ensures that we can easily accommodate lots of high quality staff training, holidays and staff absences. We would like to say best wishes to Ellis and Kayleigh who are both leaving us and moving to pastures new. Thank you so very much for ALL of your extremely hard work. We will miss you. Welcome to Amy Buchan and Lucy Pirie who have recently joined us. Welcome back also to Rachel Cross and Lauren Garden who have returned recently from maternity leave. Pedro has returned to us from Spain. Pedro is a qualified teacher and a real asset to KingsWellies.
