“I qualified in 1997 from Dundee College as a nursery nurse and since then I have worked within a range of settings. I feel that I have the most experience and knowledge of the private sector, where I have worked at all levels, including manager. Before working for myself at Balgillo Nursery my most recent employed post was within the Education Department of Dundee City Council where I worked closely with the voluntary sector.

Since qualifing to HNC level in 2000 at Dundee College I have worked within a range of settings at home and abroad. I have also worked at all levels, including manager.

I joined Balgillo Nursery in 2008 where I worked as Depute Manager. I also have a keen interest in the development of Balgillo Nursery Too and Pamela and I are working alongside our newest team members to develop the practice withing the nursery and ensure that this operates to a high level also.

Pamela and I have previously worked together so I know that we share the same values and beliefs when it comes to high quality care and education.Ongoing professional development is a big part of this and I qualified in June 2011 with a Level 8, Professional Development Award through Dundee College and in 2016 I achieved a PDA level 9.

I look forward to meeting your family soon and welcoming you to Balgillo Nurseries

I qualified with an HNC in Early Education and Childcare in 2010 and have worked mainly within the Private Sector. I started working at Balgillo Nursery in October 2013. I am currently enrolled and am undertaking the BA in Childhood Practice at Dundee University. 

Since starting the nursery I had been worked across all age ranges and have loved my experience so far. I am now working within the Pre school aged children but I am fully committed to providing the best experiences for all of the children.

I look forward to meeting any new parents and children as they start and supporting them throughout their transition to nursery.

 I have recently completed my SVQ level 4 qualification through distance learning and have extended my role from EYP to Deputy Manager and now Nursery Manager. My main role is to support the smooth day to day running of the nursery as well as mentor the team to ensure good outcomes for children. 

I started working at Balgillo Nursery in April 2019 and recently (april 2021) achieved my SVQ 3 and 4 (2023) in Childcare.

I have previously worked within other private nurseries locally and I am enjoying the challenges of my new role. 

Since starting at Balgillo Nurseries I have been working with the children in the main playroom for 2-5's I have also spent time working with our youngest children (0-2years) and I am a workplace mentor for new staff. 

I started with Balgillo Nursery Too in January 2021, where I have recently qualified as an Early Years Practitioner with my SVQ3. Through my time in the nursery I have worked with the children in the 2-5 room and have recently become a key worker for children in the 3-5 group. I enjoy working with the children and providing new experiences for them.

I have been with Balgillo Nursery Too since 2019 and during this time I have became an Early Years Practitioner and gained my SVQ3. Through my time at the nursery I have worked with all age ranges, where I currently closely work with the children in the 2-3 group. I enjoy working with the children and providing new and exciting ideas to enhance their learning. Currently I am the nurserys’ cultural champion, where I research cultural festivals and key themes to provide different experiences for the children.
