Nursery Practitioner & Playworker

Hi, I’m Nichola…

I am Room Leader in Pre-School Pippins with our 3-4 year old’s.

I did my first qualifications and worked in Childcare 25 years ago but left due to family commitments. When I saw there was a vacancy in the Appletree team I decided now would be the right time to move back into it and I am so glad I did. The children and staff were so welcoming and I felt at home and like I fitted into the Appletree team straight away.

I also work in our after school club and holiday clubs. It’s lovely to work with so many different children.

I have recently completed my NCCFE CACHE Level 3 Diploma in Early Years. I am involved with planning and organising future Appletree events which I love! I am also doing further training to become involved in our Safeguarding team.
