About Us
Our Ethos
To provide a collaborative learning environment, involving parents and guardians in the day to day involvement of our nursery.
This collaborative environment is created through:
- A parent and guardian rota system.
- Supporting community events and fundraising activities.
- Your commitment to the needs of the children and helping nurture them within this environment.
Our Team
Leading our wonderful team is our Nursery Manager, Shakeira Lawson.
The children call me Keira. I have over 15 years childcare experience. I love looking after children with a hands on, open door philosophy. I'm level 5 qualified in childcare and management and lead my team by example.
I'm mother to 3 very different personalities, each with different learning styles and present different challenges as a parent. This experience allows me to understand the importance of working in partnership with parents, relaying my experiences but also learning from theirs.
I believe that all children, irrespective of their background, should be given an equal opportunity to develop so as to reach their required developmental milestone, and I have great fun helping them to achieve this!
I look forward to meeting you and potentially welcoming you into the Jumping Beans family!
