I opened the Monkey House in 1996, having previously spent many years as a Nanny. I hold an NVQ3 in Early Years Care and Education. Having an interest in special needs has led me to complete various courses including Makaton which we use within the setting.

I joined the Monkey House as a teaching assistant in 2002 and became Deputy Head in 2004. I hold an NVQ3 in Early Years Care and Education. I am married with an 10yr old little girl who attended the Monkey House Nursery School.

I assisted Nickie in the opening of the Monkey House Nursery School. I am a qualified teacher and have also completed a Pre-school Playgroup Association Foundation course.

I started working at the Monkey House in 2005. I have two young boys and a little girl. I aim to start a NVQ in Early Years Care and Education in the near future.
