Our Team

 Staffing

There  are 7 staff/key persons working at Skamps Pre-school Day Nursery Bedworth, of which staff hold level 3 or above qualifications and are DBS checked, most have a Paediatric First Aid qualification, food hygiene certificates and all have safeguarding training.

Training needs are met through various training providers and in house, and attend various  meetings to network with other managers and keep up to date with current  thinking and legislation.

Staff are Key persons

Skamps  Pre-school Day Nursery Bedworth operates a key person system. This means  that each member of staff has a group of children for whom she/he is  particularly responsible. Your child's key person will be the person who  works with you to make sure that what we provide is right for your  child's particular needs and interests. When your child first starts at  nursery she/he will help your child to settle and throughout your  child's time at nursery she/he will help your child to benefit from  nursery activities.

Below are photos of our staff (coming soon) which have a little bit about them, written by them so you can get to know us.  

Hello and welcome from the team

Early Years Professional, Senior Practitioner and Owner, Speech and Language Champion, Designated Safeguarding Lead and First Aider

I started off working in Skamps as a ‘helping mum’  in 1994 when my 2  children attended some 20 odd years ago and am now a very proud Nanny to  my daughter’s two son's and daughter. My son has ADHD and Aspergers  Syndrome so I know how challenging it is to have a child with Special  Needs. I took the running of Skamps over in September 1995 when it was  at the Methodist Church on Wheelwright Lane and moved the Nursery to  Wheelwright Lane School in September 1996. Now moved again July 2014 to  where we are now and re-opened in September 2014. Each move involved  setting up and making the environment fun, stimulating and safe.

Since  taking over I have achieved a Foundation Degree and BA(Hons) in Early  Education Studies and hold an Early Years Professional Status, I am  Designated Safeguarding Lead and Speech and Language Champion for the  setting. My role is to ensure the nursery is run to provide the  children with the best possible start to their education which is a fun  filled and exciting experience and to ensure the nursery meets the  requirements set by OFSTED, Warwickshire County Council and Early Education  Funding requirements. I am also a key person and thoroughly enjoy  working every day with the children, getting to know them and their  individual characters - life is never boring!

I have 3 children currently 3, 4, and 6 years of age. I have just qualified as a level 3 practitioner and have been working at Skamps for just over 12 months. All my children attended Skamps which motivated me to completing my level three qualification as the support and learning they achieved whilst in their care gave me the confidence to go into childcare which also helps me to support my children in school and nursery. I really enjoy the messy activities and its very rewarding to see the children grow to reach their full potential
