Hi, I’m Jemma the Nursery Manager at both Tiny Tots Daycare and Tongham Daycare.
My philosophy as an Early Years professional is to ensure that all children are provided with a safe, secure and challenging environment which stimulates their learning abilities and meets their unique individual needs. I implement this into practice by promoting and encouraging staff’s professional development, building genuine and secure bonds with children and their parents, whilst also working in partnership with our regulatory body.
Teamwork is also a fundamental part of my role to ensure the smooth running of an Early Years setting.

By embedding this into our everyday practice, it enables us to identifying areas of strength and areas for improvement and implement this into our practice.
