Parkend Early Learners

Who's Who

Welcome to the Parkend Early Learners Staff.

Manager 

DSL

SENCO

I have been dedicated to early years education for over a decade, creating nurturing, engaging, and inclusive environments where children can learn, grow, and thrive. Since 2015, I have proudly managed Yorkley Playgroup, supporting children and families within the local community and helping to build a warm, welcoming setting focused on every child’s individual development.

In 2019, I expanded my role by also becoming Manager of Parkend Playgroup, leading both settings alongside one another. Managing two playgroups has allowed me to develop strong leadership skills, build experienced and caring teams, and maintain high standards of early years care and education across both locations.

I am passionate about providing children with safe, stimulating, and happy learning experiences that encourage confidence, creativity, and independence. I believe in working closely with families to ensure every child feels valued, supported, and ready to take their next steps in education.

Throughout my career, I have remained committed to creating positive environments where children can flourish socially, emotionally, and academically while making lasting memories during their early years.
