January Newsletter 2023
Welcome Back!
Welcome back to all of our children and families, and welcome to all of our new children and families that have joined us this January. We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year and hope you all have a happy and healthy 2023!
Your Management Team…
Please let us introduce ourselves as your management team.
My name is Jenna and I am the Nursery Manager. We look forward to welcoming our new parents to the nursery from January and it is so lovely to be back from my maternity leave to see all of our existing children and parents. If you have anything you’d like to discuss, please do not hesitate to contact me on: jenna.schroeder@snapdragonsnursery.com
My name is Suzanne and I am the Deputy Manager/Head of Early Years Practice. Many of you know me as the Head of Toddlers, however I am covering Jess whilst she is on maternity leave. I look forward to a fun year with all of the children in 2023! If you have any questions or queries, please contact me on: suzanne.atkinson@snapdragonsnursery.com
Welcome to the world Lily….. Congratulations Jess!
As some of you may know, Jess (Deputy Manager/Head of Early Years Practice) has had her baby! Lily was born in October. Jess and Lily are both doing well, and pop in throughout the week, so hopefully you will see them both soon!
Look who came to visit us in December….
We had a special visit from Father Christmas. The babies loved Father Christmas and gave him a cuddle!
He also delivered us some presents to put under our Christmas tree…. however some of them were opened quite quickly!
Staffing Update!
We have had a few staffing changes in the last couple of months that some parents are aware of, however we thought it would be helpful to confirm these for you.
We have welcomed Ellie and Alison into our baby team. Ellie is a fantastic apprentice and Alison is our wonderful lunchtime assistant. We also have Julie who is now in our baby room as well, however you may see Julie around the nursery as an Early Years Support Assistant.
We also have some great news! Fay has now taken on the Deputy Room Leader in Toddlers with the support of Suzanne who is currently our Deputy Manager/Head of Early Years Practice whilst Jess is currently on Maternity Leave. Well done Fay!
In pre-school, we are delighted that Izzy is now the Pre-school Room Leader. Izzy and the team have been implementing a new routine in pre-school, and we are excited about what is to come for our pre-school in 2023!
Please take a look at our staff board next to the reception desk for a full update on who is in what room!
