Providing a homely, family ethos of genuine care for each individual child to be happy and comfortable, to learn, to grow, to develop and to progress to reach their potential. Providing our parents with information and support. Providing all our staff with continuing professional development, so they achieve high levels of qualifications in the profession of Early Years childcare and education.
Hi my name is Lynne. I am the nursery owner. I have worked in Early years education since 1988, initially as a school teacher. In 1996, whilst expecting my first child, I made the move to join my parents at Playpals Childcare Centre and in 2007, following their retirement became the proprietor. During this time I have returned to university to achieve my Early Years Professional Status, which I felt built on my previous maths degree and P.G.C.E.
